3 players who are really not fond of Jose Mourinho

Manchester United v Leicester City - Premier League
The Special One

#2 Pepe

Real Madrid v Club Atletico de Madrid - UEFA Champions League Final
Pepe

Pepe defended Iker Casillas when he decided to call Xavi to calm things down. Pepe called for more respect from Mourinho, and labelled Mourinho's comments as ‘not adequate’. This did not sit well with Jose Mourinho.

This coincided with Pepe losing his place in the team to Raphael Varane. As you can expect, this did not sit well with Pepe. While this seems biased on Mourinho's part, Pepe was not getting any better, and Varane was a young prospect with a lot of potential.

Jose Mourinho eventually hit back at Pepe when he stated:

"Pepe has a problem, and his name is Raphael Varane" (BBC).
