Jose Mourinho, about Cristi Chivu: "Back when I was coaching him, I would have never believed that he would become a coach"

Jose Mourinho, the former coach of Cristi Chivu at Inter Milan, expressed admiration for the excellent journey of the Romanian as a coach. Chivu, who was a key player in the 2010 season when Inter won the treble, has managed to build a successful career on the coaching bench. Mourinho acknowledged that he would not have expected Chivu to become a coach, emphasizing that he was smart, studied, and did his apprenticeship.

Additionally, Mourinho criticized the idea that playing style is more important than results, considering it a lie in football. With four rounds remaining in Serie A, Inter has a 10-point lead over Napoli and could soon win the title, a moment Mourinho looks forward to celebrating alongside Chivu.
