The Unbeaten Fraud Furious Real Madrid Fans Turn On Mourinho Despite Winning First Trophy

The Unbeaten Fraud Furious Real Madrid Fans Turn on Mourinho Despite Winning First Trophy José Mourinho’s return to Real Madrid has already produced silverware, but the Portuguese manager is facing growing criticism from supporters just weeks into his second spell at the club. Real Madrid secured their first trophy of Mourinho’s new era on Wednesday after a narrow 1-0 victory over Deportivo La Coruña in the Teresa Herrera Trophy. The result extended the team’s unbeaten start under Mourinho, with two wins and a draw recorded during pre-season. Despite lifting the trophy, however, sections of the Madrid fanbase were far from impressed by the performance.

Supporters have taken aim at what they describe as a defensive and uninspiring style of football. Mourinho is renowned for his pragmatic approach, but some Real Madrid fans believe the team is already relying too heavily on individual brilliance rather than displaying a clear attacking structure or strong collective identity.

The narrow victory over Deportivo has intensified those concerns, particularly with the new LaLiga season approaching.

Real Madrid’s substantial investment in the squad has also increased pressure on Mourinho. The club has reportedly spent heavily during the summer, including a club-record move for Yan Diomande. Supporters therefore expect the team to dominate opponents rather than struggle to score against sides considered inferior.

One frustrated fan questioned how Madrid could be producing such narrow victories after spending heavily on new attacking talent.

Brazilian forward Vinícius Jr has also become part of the debate surrounding Mourinho’s team. Some supporters criticised his performance against Deportivo and questioned his defensive work rate, with calls for Mourinho to drop him if his attitude does not improve. The situation has added another layer to the growing tension between expectations at the Bernabéu and the football currently being produced on the pitch. The frustration has gone beyond Mourinho’s tactics, with some supporters already identifying players they believe should be moved on. Among the names mentioned by angry fans are Dean Huijsen, Álvaro Carreras, Federico Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga, Brahim Díaz and Vinícius Jr.

While these reactions come during pre-season, they highlight the enormous expectations surrounding Mourinho’s return.

Despite the criticism, Mourinho remains unbeaten since returning to Real Madrid and has already delivered his first piece of silverware.

The team still has one pre-season fixture against Schalke 04 before beginning its LaLiga campaign away to Espanyol. For now, Mourinho can point to results and a trophy, but Real Madrid supporters will expect far more once the competitive season begins.
