Jose Mourinho still exudes the same ‘charisma’ as he did at Chelsea, claims Scott Parker
As reported by the Independent, Fulham manager Scott Parker has claimed that Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho still has the same ‘charisma’ that he did during his Chelsea days.
Mourinho worked with Parker during his first stint at Chelsea during the 2004/05 campaign. This will be the first time that the two will be pitted against each other as managers. And the Fulham boss has claimed that he has immense respect for the Portuguese.
“It only felt like yesterday when I was a player under Jose and now I’ll stand in the technical area with him, albeit a few years under him in terms of being in this job, so his experience is far superior. It is an occasion I am relishing and looking forward to and I can’t wait to meet up with him again.”
Mourinho rocked up England when he first arrived in 2004, claiming that he was the ‘Special One’. A charismatic figure, the Portuguese still exudes the same aura according to Parker.
“He had charisma about him which we all see now. His training methods, his organisation and he himself brings a big personality and charisma, so that is exactly how I see him. As a manager it speaks for itself what he has done in the game.”
