Mourinho blasts Ozil after his comments on joining Spurs

January 13, 2021

It’s a fact that the world of English football has been acutely aware of ever since Mourinho’s first day at Chelsea in the summer of 2004, famously declaring that he was the ‘Special One’.

Since then, we’ve seen the Portuguese coach produce other iconic moments ranging from analogies about eggs to calling Arsenal legend Arsene Wenger a ‘specialist in failure’.

The night before, Mesut Ozil was conducting a Twitter Q&A and when asked by a fan whether he’d rather play for Tottenham or retire, the World Cup winner replied: “Easy question. Retire!”

Naturally, putting that comment to Mourinho was too good of an opportunity to miss and the iconic coach didn’t let us down with a brutal reply that made his feelings very clear.

Mourinho fired back by saying: “Who told him that Tottenham are interested in signing him?” You can check out the video of the brilliant moment down below:
