Jose Mourinho has hit back at claims his teams are defensive and
claims he has a "place in history" thanks to his records.
The Chelsea boss has been criticised for adopting safe tactics with
his sides, but the Portuguese insists his records speak for
themselves.
"My teams are great teams. My teams are the ones with all the goal
records. I am the champion of the League of Records. That is my place
in history," Mourinho said.
Mourinho secured back-to-back Premier League titles with Chelsea in
2005 and 2006, and won the '05 crown with a record 95 points. He also
wrestled the La Liga title off Barcelona with Real Madrid in 2012 with
a record-breaking side.
"Who is the manager of the best Real Madrid team in history? That is
me," he said. "One hundred points, 121 goals, champion against the
best Barcelona there ever has been. I am the one.
"Real Madrid was a defensive team? We scored 121 goals and got 100
points. My Chelsea was defensive? But they still have the Premier
League points record.
"Sometimes a lie that is repeated a lot fools people into thinking it
is true. Are my teams attacking? They are built to win. You have to be
dominant to win more than not so that is what my teams try to be."
