The documentary series "Mourinho" premiered on Tuesday on Netflix, exploring the career of Portuguese coach José Mourinho. The production, filmed over more than two years, focuses on three crucial moments in his journey: his arrival at Chelsea in 2004, the end of his first tenure at the club in 2007, and his time at Real Madrid in 2010.

José Mourinho, known for his strong character, does not shy away from criticizing the past in interviews. In the new documentary, he describes one of his work experiences as 'big bulls***', highlighting his candidness in discussing difficult moments in his career.

The series also addresses the demands Mourinho faced, one of which led to a distancing from collaboration with other football names, such as Pep Guardiola. The relationship between the two, characterized by rivalries, is mentioned as a factor that influenced the content of the series.

Although the series presents a portrait of the coach, critics argue that it fails to capture the depth of his personality. The production focuses more on career events rather than providing an intimate analysis of the man behind the coach.
