Jose Mourinho, wherever he goes, creates moments that either go viral or stir controversy. This time in Turkish football, after explaining his method for selecting Fenerbahce’s starting lineup in a press conference, he once again became the center of attention. The Portuguese coach, who secured a decisive 4-1 victory over Basaksehir in the Turkish Super Lig, paused during the post-match press conference to address the topic.

After the high-scoring win, which kept Fenerbahce in the race with Galatasaray, a reporter asked: “Why have you used different lineups in 31 matches? What’s the reason for these constant changes?”

Mourinho, never one to shy away from blunt and sometimes unexpected responses, sarcastically explained his method: “I have 25 coins, and I toss them in the air. That’s how some players get to play, and others sit on the bench.”

He added humorously: “On weekends, I go to nightclubs and have fun. That’s how I pick my starting lineup.” This response also left everyone surprised.

Jose Mourinho, who took charge of Fenerbahce this season, has coached 52 matches since arriving in Istanbul. During this time, he has secured 32 wins, 12 draws, and 8 losses, maintaining a win rate of nearly 70%.
