Fenerbache President, Ali Koc, explained why the split with Mourinho became inevitable after their Champions League play-off defeat to Benfica.
“It was a bitter separation. We had great chemistry, his accomplishments are evident, and just being able to bring him here was a great achievement.
“It was difficult to part with someone I was friends with. We knew the coach would play defensively, but at the end of the season, we had discussed the need to take more of an initiative.
“The elimination to Benfica wasn’t so much the problem as the way we were eliminated. It made me feel last season’s approach would continue.
“We parted with Mourinho because we believed this team would be playing better football at this point. This kind of football might work in Europe, but in Turkey, we have to crush most opponents, not struggle to take the lead.”
Not your average Sunday League player.

Mourinho is a dinosaur who doesn’t want to adapt to new formations and tactics.
He won’t care as he’ll get other jobs and big payoffs.
His whole philosophy is still based on his success with Chelsea which if you remember was incredibly boring but effective at that point in history.
Most big clubs are more attack minded these days with all the new rules and VAR etc.
