HE’D HAVE WON MOUR CITY TITLES

JOSE MOURINHO remains the Special One and would have won the title “two or three times” if he was in charge of Manchester City, insists Didier Drogba.

The former Chelsea boss enjoyed unprecedented success at Stamford Bridge after winning the Premier League three times and establishing himself as one of the greats.

But Mourinho (above) has struggled to recapture that glory at Manchester United, while City boss Pep Guardiola (below) is sweeping all before him.

However, Drogba has come out in strong support of his old boss, says he is still proving the doubters wrong and is only suffering because he has set such high standards in the past.

Drogba said: “If you put him at City, he would have won the league twice, maybe three times. You get criticism because you set a standard of winning, winning and winning – and now you’re not winning or having the same results.

“He is still there. You have to look at all the managers who were at Manchester United the last few years. Being manager after Sir Alex Ferguson is not easy and the finances they had then are not the same as they have now.

“People only pay attention to the best and he is one of the best – and that is why he gets all of this.

“I think he’s taking the challenge – because it’s a big challenge – and if people criticise you, then how can you enjoy it?

“It’s tough. And, after all, he’s human.

“He’s trying to change his approach and that’s what the best managers do.

“And when things are not working, you try your best to change it.”
