Mourinho loves taking credit for everything: Pellegrini
London: Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini on Wednesday took a swipe at rival boss Jose Mourinho, saying the Chelsea coach takes credit for everything.
The Portuguese guided the ‘Blues’ to Premier League glory last season, finishing eight points ahead of defending champions City in second place. But Pellegrini believes the manner in which the two coaches celebrated their respective title wins highlights key differences in their characters with the Chilean intimating that Mourinho took the limelight away from his players.
“When he wins, Mourinho wants to take credit for everything. I never do that. When I won the Premier League, I didn’t say a word,” Pellegrini was quoted as saying by Chilean newspaper El Mercurio.
The two managers have endured a fractious relationship ever since Mourinho replaced Pellegrini at Real Madrid, though the City boss insists he does not hold a grudge against his Chelsea counterpart.
“I don’t have any problem with Mourinho. He’s not my enemy and there isn’t any conflict – but I differ from him on all fronts. I have no interest in analysing him as a person,” Pellegrini concluded.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
