Jose Mourinho is a man who sparks debate across world football. He may rub some people up the wrong way but most have a huge amount of admiration for him. He has been quick to stir the pot in regards to the Manchester United appointment of Louis van Gaal, though, with the latter revealing that Mourinho has text him to say he is jealous of the Dutchman’s career.
Van Gaal famously led Ajax to a huge amount of success before doing something similar with Barcelona and Bayern Munich, as well as being the main man for the Holland national side.
I can’t wait for these two to come up against each other over the next couple of years, I really think they can be the Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger of old.
Both are fiery characters and both have huge personalities, and when they come up against each other in the Premier League I am expecting fireworks.
I can’t be the only one anticipating this potential grudge match.
