JOSE NOT TO BLAME FOR YOUTH RECORD

Lot’s of people has given Jose Mourinho sticks for his percieved negligence of youth in the teams he has gone to, which is infact not true.
While Jose plied his trade at Porto, the youth players were a big part of the club, in the 2004 UCL final where Jose made his name Porto had 2 academy gratuates in that team that beat monaco the same amount fergie had in the 2008 UCL final.
At Chelsea, you could remember the club was looking for instant success therefore the need to buy instead of groom players.
At Inter Milan, the club was more interested in buying players from south america as opposed to growing their own academy, Jose even attempted to tame the very wild Mario Balloteli.
At Real Madrid, you don’t need to be told why they are called the galacticos, they buy the biggest of players every season, even at that Jose gave the likes of morata, Jese and callejon their debut, and turning the then 19 year old Rafael Varane into a starter.
His second stint at Chelsea was almost same as the first, Roman wanted trophies and Jose delivered, he granted debut to kurt zouma and loftus-cheek, it ended in a total mess when then the club wanted to use academy players which as a matter of fact had not been a norm in the club. JOSE MOURINHO WOULD USE YOU IF YOU ARE GOOD DOESN’T MATTER YOUR AGE.
