Jose Mourinho waited for ref in car park after Barcelona v Real Madrid in 2012

In terms of box office entertainment, no elite-level manager in history comes close to Jose Mourinho.

Even as he edges closer to his 60s, the Portuguese tactician regularly makes headlines for his antics in the dugout.

There’s no doubt that Mourinho will be remembered as one of the greatest managers in football history. Few coaches from past or present boast a CV anywhere near as impressive as his.

Over the course of his glittering 22-year managerial career, Mourinho has won league titles in four different countries and lifted a host of cups, including the Champions League with FC Porto and Inter Milan.

Madrid registered 100 points that season, scoring a remarkable 121 goals, thanks largely to Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Spanish giants also narrowly missed out on a place in that season’s Champions League final, losing on penalties to Bayern Munich in the semis.

As for the Copa del Rey, they reached the quarter-finals before suffering a 4-3 aggregate defeat to fierce rivals Barcelona.

Mourinho’s side came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 in the second leg thanks to goals from Ronaldo and Karim Benzema, but it wasn’t enough to send Los Blancos through to the final four.
