José Mourinho is back to being his grumpy and provocative self after joining Fenerbahçe in July.
The 61-year-old former Chelsea and Inter boss already had to watch the UEFA Europa League between his side and AZ from the stands, because he was serving a one-match ban after his red card against Manchester United. On top of that, Mourinho had to serve a one-match ban on Sunday, as Fenerbahçe trounced Sivasspor. Mourinho celebrated Fenerbahce's late win over Trabzonspor the previous weekend with an attempted knee slide in front of opposition supporters.
After Trabzonspor had been awarded two penalties, he said his team had played "against the VAR and against the system" and that VAR official Atilla Karaoğlan was "drinking Turkish tea" instead of following the game. The attempted knee slide was deemed by the Turkish Football Federation to be "unsportsmanlike conduct."
Mourinho's side currently sit second in the Turkish Süper Lig, five points behind leaders and rivals Galatasaray. Let's see what the Portuguese eccentric will do next in Istanbul.
