The Italian coach mentioned that the Portuguese manager is a legend and did not fail to express how special it feels to beat him.
Here are Spalletti’s words about Jose Mourinho:
'Jose has the ability to make us understand what he thinks in any language. He is an added value for the players he manages, and at the same time, a challenge for his opponents. Beating him has a special taste because it is important for someone who is on the path to becoming a legend. He has already become a legend.
"He Even Told Me a Tongue Twister"
At first, we clashed a bit. He was at Inter, I was at Roma, and we were competing for everything. He uses words like a boxer. His aim is to hurt you, to knock you out. He is very good at this. He even told me a tongue twister. There was a pure respect between us. Mourinho, together with Beckham, is an influencer of modern football. He sets the trends, ideas, and words.'
