Jose Mourinho has responded to Pep Guardiola after the Manchester City manager highlighted his six Premier League titles compared to Mourinho’s three. Guardiola’s comments came following City’s 2-0 loss to Liverpool, where he raised six fingers to fans mocking him about being sacked, referencing his league title wins. He emphasized City’s achievements and expressed hope to extend his tenure despite eventual challenges.
Mourinho, now managing Fenerbahçe, countered by stating his three titles were won “fairly and cleanly,” hinting at City’s 115 charges for alleged financial rule breaches. He remarked, “If I lose, I congratulate my opponent, but I don’t want to win by dealing with 150 lawsuits.” The charges against City are under investigation by an independent commission and could lead to severe consequences, including relegation.
