http://tinyurl.com/dzy7k 莫里尼奥的传记，作者Patrick Barclay http://www.lrb.co.uk/v28/n01/runc01_.html 书评，作者David Runciman 没看过书，但书评很精采，所以很难决定要选录哪一段。 He shoots! He scores! LRB | Vol. 28 No. 1 dated 5 January 2006 | David Runciman Mourinho has got one other thing going for him that no one who has watched him in action can fail to notice. He is astonishingly good-looking. Barclay is metrosexual enough to be able to discuss this without embarrassment, but he prefers to call it ‘presence’, comparing Mourinho to charismatic but hardly swoon-inducing men like Bill Shankly and Brian Clough. What he has in common with Clough and Shankly is that the players appear desperate to do whatever it takes to win his approval, like schoolgirls fighting for an approving glance from their favourite teacher. Barclay turns to Desmond Morris s to explain what is going on here, citing the Chelsea players' body language as evidence that some profound human forces are at work – not just "respect", not just "camaraderie", but something like ‘love’. This may be overstating it. Mourinho, as well as being very handsome, is always nicely turned out, something that almost all modern professionals take extremely seriously. Ryan Giggs, for example, put the extraordinary impact of Eric Cantona on Manchester United down to the fact that not only was he a gifted player who trained hard, but also that his idiosyncratic, classically French wardrobe put the rest of the team to shame. In Giggs's words, as a dresser Cantona was simply in a "different class". This is one of the things that make it hard to be sure who was really responsible for the transformation of United's fortunes during the mid-1990s: were the players galvanised by the presence of the manically chewing, red-faced Scotsman on the touchline in a puffa jacket for whom they had been underperforming for years, or was it the search for a nod of approval from Cantona, with his appraising peacock stare, that drove them on? (Admittedly, it was Ferguson's decision to sign Cantona, as it was his decision to sign Roy Keane, whose terrifying, cold-eyed glare would make anyone want to stay in his good books.) At Chelsea, Mourinho smoulders at his players from the sidelines in a fetching array of suits and coats, top button of his shirt undone and tie slightly askew. Compare this to Liverpool's equally methodical Rafael Benitez, whose team's league performances have sometimes seemed strangely lethargic, and who paces the technical area in his ill-fitting suit and anorak like a slightly down-at-heel Spanish civil servant. Benitez, it must be said, appears to be a thoroughly civilised man and an excellent coach. But Mourinho recognises that it is part of a manager's job to give his team the audience they need to perform. ~~ 作者认为老大想当葡萄牙国家队教练，这个愿望恐难达成 葡萄牙夺冠的最好的机会在2004欧锦，因为天时地利人和 但莫里尼奥有限的人生里，这种机会可遇不可求 ~~ --
