CHELSEA FC: Mourinho tops managers' ranking again

/noticias.info/ José Mourinho is the Tissot League for Managers’ Performance Award winner for the first quarter of the season.

Now in its third year as a competition, the award was devised with the help of the League Managers Association to allow managers from every level of League football to test themselves against one another.

Every competitive game counts towards a manager's individual score in the Tissot League. Points are awarded for victories and draws, with results away from home scoring higher.

There are points for clean sheets and goals scored, whilst a team's winning margin also counts towards the total, and managers are also rewarded for maintaining an unbeaten run.

The current table places Mourinho ahead of Steve Coppell of Reading and Neil Warnock of Sheffield United.

It is the Chelsea manager’s third award in this competition. Last season he was top in the third quarter and then won the overall season award.

Commenting on his latest win, Mourinho said: “This is a very objective trophy because it is made on victories, on goals, on clean sheets and victories away.

“I have won one for a third time but I still have space because it is a beautiful trophy. I am very pleased.”

He was presented with the trophy by John Duncan of the League Managers Association at Chelsea's Cobham training HQ on Friday afternoon (pictured). notas_de_prensa_archivo
