In the past decade, he has reached the European final three times and won the championship twice - Mourinho, will he be the one who ends Gutman s curse?

Maybe, Mourinho is just a passerby to Benfica, but with Mourinho's qualifications and football status, we still hope that he can bring something to Benfica. 25 years ago, Mourinho coached Benfica for the first time and only stayed for 77 days. And this time, maybe he can stay longer.

However, it is not realistic to expect Mourinho to bring Benfica to gain something in the Champions League. On the one hand, Benfica is only a second-tier role in the current Champions League; on the other hand, Mourinho, who has been away from the Champions League for five years, has long lost his original position. But it has to be said that Benfica's job is indeed Mourinho's best offer in the past five years since leaving Tottenham. At the same time, I also believe that Mourinho has indeed been the biggest head coach in Benfica's position as coach since the 21st century. So, can Mourinho have something to do with Gutman’s curse? The Gutman Curse's time limit is 100 years and was automatically lifted by the 1960s. But Benfica fans certainly hope to break this curse during the validity period. Of course, in Gutman's era, there was only the Champions League in the European Union, but now, with the European Union and the European Union, some things suddenly became simple. Let’s start with Mourinho’s coaching career in the past decade. After leaving Real Madrid, he frankly said that Mourinho began to go downhill. Although he later made good results when he entered the palace in Chelsea, he had already fallen behind compared to his high spirits back then. It was during this period that Mourinho's glory in the Champions League was directly covered up, and he even gradually became marginalized in the Champions League and had to retreat to the European League.

However, if Mourinho, who has faded out of the Champions League, has his status and grade reduced by one level, then his cup genes are still online. In the past decade, Mourinho has led the team to play three European finals, two of which won the championship, and the other is also due to the referee's controversial penalty, and the result is the runner-up. First of all, in the UEFA Europa League season 16 to 17, Mourinho led Manchester United to the finals and won the championship. Then there is the UEFA Europa League season 21 to 22, Mourinho led Roma to the finals and won the championship. Immediately after the 22-23 season, Mourinho led Roma to the Europa League final, but unfortunately he was dragged into the penalty shootout by Sevilla for a wrong judgment. Mourinho was one of the most unlucky coaches in the penalty shootout. He was still the loser that time and he lost miserably. But it has to be said that in the past ten years, Mourinho has still been very good at leading the team to the Cup. In Fenerbahce, he also brought the team into the Europa League's top 16 last season, but unfortunately he lost to the Glasgow Rangers in penalty shootout. Another penalty kick. But with Fenerbahce's strength, what else can you ask for? Therefore, if Benfica wants to lift the Gutman curse, the platform that can be relied on is definitely not the Champions League, but the Europa League or the Europa League. If Benfica can give Mourinho enough time and trust, then Mourinho will be deeply involved in the European League or the European League, and it is not ruled out that he can create miracles. Benfica has a good foundation, and demons often emerge. If this team is placed in the UEFA league, there will definitely be a single play; if it is placed in the UEFA league, it will even be a giant team with the top five strengths. Although it is a bit low to crack the Gutman curse through the channels of the Europa League or the Europa League, can the current European football ecology be compared with the Gutman period? In the 1960s, Benfica was the best team in Europe, and now, the elite sense of the Portuguese Super League and Eredivisie leagues has long been ruined by Boseman. Of course, if there is a Champions League to play, who will go to the Europa League or the Europa League? But from the perspective of winning the European Championship, the most suitable arena for Benfica, which is indeed the latter two. I just don’t know if Mourinho can get such an opportunity. Furthermore, with such an opportunity, can he have such a fortune?
