Jose Mourinho has given himself a new nickname stating that he no longer wants to be called the 'Special One'.
Jose Mourinho has been managing in the Premier League since 2004, and he admits that his nickname of the 'Special One' is now outdated.
Mourinho became known as the ‘Special One’ after he gave himself the label when he arrived to much hype and fanfare at Chelsea in 2004.
On Thursday November 19, he revealed he should be called a new name.
"The 'Experienced One.' I am very experienced," Mourinho replied when asked by journalists what he would call himself now.
"Basically everything that happens to me in football now is deja vu, is something that has happened to me before.
"There are jobs that you need a special fitness condition like a football player. A 40-year-old does not have the same potential like a 20-or 30-year old, unless you're Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
"Coaching you just need your brain, an accumulation of experiences and knowledge can only make you better."
Tottenham Hotspur will face Manchester City this weekend.
