Jose Mourinho, one of the most extraordinary and charismatic managers of the football world, placed himself at the center of the agenda again with extremely entertaining and clever statements about world-famous goalkeepers he worked with throughout his career. Displaying a humorous approach against the difficult and intriguing question directed to him by press members in the form of "Is Courtois the best goalkeeper you managed?", the Portuguese coach made everyone smile with his answer. Instead of brushing off the question with a single name directly, the experienced coach summarized the situation by mentioning his former students with these words: "If I say Courtois is the best goalkeeper I managed, Julio Cesar will call me within two minutes and say he won the Champions League for me at Inter." Neglecting no praise for other legendary gloves in his career after this entertaining intro, the successful manager openly expressed his admiration for the Czech goalkeeper by saying about Petr Cech, "The only thing I can say is that Cech is the best goalkeeper in Premier League history." Touching upon his memories regarding Courtois as well, Mourinho stated that he realized the talent of the Belgian goalkeeper very early, emphasizing how big a chance the young goalkeeper was for the team with the words, "and when Courtois came to Chelsea, he became the first-choice goalkeeper in place of him when he was only twenty years old. We won the Premier League with Courtois." This balanced and humorous approach of the Portuguese manager created a wide repercussion in the sports media.
