Jose Mourinho shocked the English Landscape by winning the League in his debut season with Chelsea. The Portuguese manager who describes himself as ‘the special one’ put an end to Arsenal and Manchester United’s domination of English soccer. His Chelsea stint boasted of an imperious defense and their 15 league goals conceded in the 2004/05 season remains one of the most incredible team achievements in soccer history. In a recent podcast, Mourinho detailed how former owner Roman Abramovich helped in the team’s success. JOSE MOURINHO REVEALS ABRAMOVICH’S ROLE IN CHELSEA’S DOMINANCE For Mourinho, the key factor in his success with Chelsea remains Roman Abramovich. He explained, “First of all Abramovich money. Because every time we speak of the best teams, we are speaking of the money too. Now what Man City is, now what Liverpool is, now what Chelsea still is, but they are not as good as we were.” Is the Portuguese tactician implying that finances are key to success for soccer clubs?

Soccer was the first sport I played in my life. It turned out to be my favorite
one by an absolute mile. In my younger days, I became a Liverpool fan but it was
only when Jurgen Klopp arrived that my passion for the game intensified. It is
safe to say that watching and analyzing soccer has added significantly to the
quality of my life. I also enjoy playing video games when I'm not talking or
writing about Soccer. Red Dead Redemption 2 is my favorite guilty pleasure.

<h2>History</h2>
The history of modern soccer can be dated back to the mid-nineteenth century when local clubs in England came forward and established a set of rules, leading to the formation of the Football Association in London, England, on 26 October 1863. A total of 11 soccer clubs were present at the first meeting of the FA, along with representatives from different schools. Eight years after its culmination, the FA had 50 member clubs. In 1872, the association started the world's oldest competition to this date: the FA Cup. Since the FA Cup was a knockout competition, 12 clubs decided to start the Football League. It was the top-tier league competition in England till 1992. However, in 1992, 22 teams decided to split and formed the Premier League.

During his second Chelsea stint, he was involved in a major controversy with team doctor, Eva Carneiro. She claimed that he called her a 'daughter of a whore' in his native tongue. After a massive court case,?Chelsea issued an unreserved apology for distress caused to Carneiro and her family. They said "We wish to place on record that in running onto the pitch Dr Carneiro was following both the rules of the game and fulfilling her responsibility to the players as a doctor, putting their safety first."
