Jose Mourinho takes a swipe at Man City over new documentary

Jose Mourinho press conference TEAMtalk

Jose Mourinho has said Manchester City might be a rich club that signs the best players but they “cannot buy class”.

The Manchester United boss was responding to a question about City’s Amazon Prime documentary, which aired this week.

“I think you can have a fantastic movie, respecting others,” he told Sky Sports.

“You don’t need to be disrespectful to have a fantastic movie.

“You can be a rich club and buy all the best players in the world but you cannot buy class.”

Amazon’s eight-part documentary of City’s title-winning season lifts the lid on life in Pep Guardiola’s dressing room.

The fly-on-the-wall documentary ‘All or Nothing: Manchester City’ gives a fascinating insight into the 2017-18 campaign.

An animated Guardiola is seen telling his players to “hate me” after drawing at Crystal Palace while his half-time team talk during the Carabao Cup final at Wembley is passionate.

Snippets of a touchline row with then Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger during that game are also shown, as is some footage of the tunnel fracas during City’s shock FA Cup loss to Wigan.

Fabian Delph is also seen slamming the dressing room door after his sending off in the 1-0 fifth-round defeat at the DW Stadium.

However, Mourinho is clearly not a fan of the show and his comments will not go down well in the blue half of Manchester.
