“The Special Once” – Cundy thinks Chelsea had the best of Mourinho

Jason Cundy, quite annoying but also quite entertaining at times like this, has weighed in on the Jose Mourinho issue on talkSport.

While he’s a huge Mourinho man, he’s convinced the Portuguese manager is a spent force, saying that while Chelsea had the “special one”, Tottenham will be getting the “special once”.

Given the recent evidence from his time at Manchester United, it’s hard to disagree. But we are wary too – we all have seen first hand his power to build a formidable team, and there is plenty of talent in this Spurs squad.

We really hope that Cundy isn’t eating his words in a season or two. The last thing we need is Mourinho succeeding at Spurs, that would be painful on too many levels to explain.

But that’s a long way off, and we have Frank Lampard in charge. Our own situation couldn’t be any better, while Spurs are scrambling.
