His Specialness is already talking about completing a "Grand Slam" of, according to Jose, the three big domestic leagues in Europe; English, Italian, and Spanish.
Current manager Manuel Pellegrini hasn't been sacked yet but that could be in the very near future since Jose is set to meet either today or tomorrow with Real President Florentino Perez. Mourinho stated,
"No player or coach has won the three important leagues and I want to be the first to do it. Ancelotti, Capello, Van Nistelrooy, Beckham and others have won two, but not three. I would like to be the first to win the Grand Slam of the Spanish, Italian and English leagues."That's a tall order for him but if there is a manager who can do it, it is definitely Jose. When and if he completes the Grand Slam, will he be presented with a jacket of sorts? a crown? A cloak of invisibility? A sash like the one above?
