Josep Pedrerol's bias toward Mourinho is obvious. He doesn't even try to hide it anymore.

Mourinho is out of the Champions League for the sixth consecutive year, and that's not news for El Chiringuito

Josep Pedrerol's true colors were revealed yesterday on El Chiringuito. Historic setback for United: eliminated from the Carabao Cup by a fourth division team, could be read on its social media.

The Champions League is back, Champions League draw... So much United failure, so much Champions League... and no one notices that for the sixth consecutive year, the Champions League will be played without Jose Mourinho.

In other words, yet another failure for the Portuguese coach, quietly covered up on El Chiringuito, because, like Cristiano Ronaldo, he's one of theirs.

Mourinho's failures don't exist on El Chiringuito

Josep Pedrerol's true colors were revealed yesterday on El Chiringuito. Pep Guardiola has won six Premier League titles in eight years at the helm of Manchester City.

That's not news. But if he loses one, music from The Phantom of the Opera and... failure!

Mourinho keeps racking up one failure after another. But not on El Chiringuito, where they're masters at silencing the enemy's successes and their own failures.

Just as much as they know how to give space to the enemy's failures and their own successes. With ominous music for some and magic flutes for others.

It's pure and simple propaganda. Friends and enemies. But last night, Josep Pedrerol's true colors were revealed.

Although he doesn't care either, he doesn't even bother to hide it anymore.

That's what friends are for, to silence Mourinho's failures when they happen. With Fenerbahçe, a team with plenty of money, that spends what it doesn't have and is the European basketball champion. Last year, it was already knocked out in the Champions League qualifiers by Lille.

Fired from four clubs

Now Benfica has knocked him out. The self-proclaimed "Special One" has already spent six consecutive years away from the elite. Out of the tournament that brings together the 36 best teams in Europe.

After three years at Real Madrid, without the Champions League, he was fired from Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham, and Roma. We'll see how long it takes him to leave Türkiye.

Mourinho is more newsworthy for his shows than for his sporting successes. No matter how much Pedrerol covers up his failures, they're there. The same thing happens with Cristiano Ronaldo and even with Florentino Pérez himself.

The "feats" of Cristiano Ronaldo in Arabia

Pedrerol may worry about silencing whatever suits him. But, as happened with the Ballon d'Or or Vinícius's Beach Ballon d'Or, reality doesn't necessarily match what he's trying to sell.

Will they ever explain on El Chiringuito the "successes" of Cristiano Ronaldo in Arabia? Zero titles in three years. That's not news for El Chiringuito.

He's been at Al-Nassr for three years and what comes from him are his failures and his rookie mistakes at 40 years old. It's sad to see him trying to control a ball or shoot. We won't find out about that from El Chiringuito because what isn't good for its catechism doesn't exist.

It's better to talk about the Ballon d'Ors that were given to Messi or about Pep Guardiola's failures.

What we have to thank Pedrerol for is that he no longer hides behind the "Catalan journalist who's for Barça." Now he's out in the open.
