Let's just say how most of us see it:
The players deserve to be the champions, they worked hard and played extremely well
The manager deserves the title, but he doesn't deserve the tag as "one of the worlds best managers" since he simply can't play attractive football but he wins the games.
The club does not deserve the title since it's a club based around money like PSG etc
This is not hating, this is simply giving our opinion.
sorry but mourinho is without a doubt one of the greatest club managers alive if not ever imo. his international achievements with porto and inter speak for themselves as do his domestic titles with chelsea.
and not only his football tactics but also his managing style deserve praise. the way he controls all of his star players despite not having a big name due to an outstanding active career as player himself - no one ever questions his authority and the vast majority of players who played under him like him personally.
the same about the way he presents himself to the media. some people call it just arrogant (which he undoubtedly is), some call it funny or even unprofessional at times but i assure you it's quite the opposite. he has a very unique way of drawing away attention from his team, allowing them to have just a little less pressure in important situations. and he has no problem with being the bad guy or doing unpopular thing when it serves the purpose (which in football, like it or not, is not playing beautiful but winning titles)...
i could not think of any manager i'd blindly sign for any club rather than him...
and about the financial aspect it is just another unfortunate reality of football nowadays that it's financially so imbalanced. if it wasn't, there is no doubt in my mind that arsenal, bayern and barcelona (yes, despite the ridiculous neymar signing) would be in 90% of all champions league semis...
