It was obvious that Jose Mourinho was finished at Fenerbahce the moment the full-time whistle blew in last month's Champions League qualifier at Benfica. However, it also felt like his time at the top was over, too, because Mourinho no longer seemed quite so special.
Jose Mourinho marked his Benfica homecoming with a simple sunrise post from the club’s training ground, captioned 'Good morning SL Benfica'. But his first update as Benfica coach sparked chaos online, as Fenerbahce fans swarmed his Instagram with angry comments after his remarks that managing the Turkish side was a 'mistake' and that the club was 'not his level'.
Fenerbahce president Ali Koc has finally explained Jose Mourinho’s sacking, describing it as a "bitter parting" but admitting his style of play was no longer acceptable. Mourinho, dismissed after only a year in charge, paid the price for his defensive tactics, with Koc insisting the team needed a more dominant approach going forward.
