A new three-part Netflix documentary series exploring the career of football manager José Mourinho has been released. The series examines his leadership style, tactical approach, and tenures at major clubs such as Chelsea, Inter Milan, and Real Madrid.

While the documentary highlights his discipline and the loyalty of players like Didier Drogba and Frank Lampard, some critics noted it moves too quickly through his 2004 Champions League victory with FC Porto. 

The series also brings renewed attention to the friction between Mourinho and former Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas. Casillas defended his actions during his time as captain, while Mourinho suggested players had become ‘spoiled’. Former player Sami Khedira added that Mourinho’s management style ‘poisoned the locker room’ by creating tension and sidelining key figures.
