## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great insights into three crazy seasons
*by K***R on October 11, 2014*

It's a very entertaining read and sheds light on the other side of Mourinho. It doesn't give him enough credit for the records he broke to win the league but the halo certainly slipped. The author seems to have good access to all the main protagonists.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting but you get tired of reading all the hassle that went on at real.
*by J***H on April 18, 2014*

The book is well written and well researched, but it almost comes as a surprise that some football was even played during the three years of Mourinho's reign. The writer does not view the problems from Mourinho's side - presumably he wasnt available for comment, but at any rate the author's aim is to show the three years as living hell for most of the Madrid players. Yet despite all the criticism aimed at Mourinho, we don't get a satisfactory explanation why they and the Club overall were able to put up with him for so long.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Rashomon
*by K***T on June 10, 2014*

Did Jose Mourinho really conspire to lose a second leg tie in the Champions League against Barcelona to blame it on the referee? Was he an explicit booster for his agent Jorge Mendes's business through his Real transfer dealings? Did Mourinho really break down when he wasn't given the United job? How did the Real players really behave in the dressing room? And what about the curious case of Fabio Coentrao?Answers are here given by Diego Torres, written in an entertaining and salacious style. If it is 80% true, this is the best book written on Jose Mourinho. But there are serious doubts on the veracity of this account, as well as the impartiality of Diego Torres. In the absence of further information it is impossible to know who is telling the truth and who is lying, but I do have serious doubts on the tale foretold. What manager would give up a tie with just a two-goal deficit against your arch-rivals?
