Quotes of the decade - part II
The Noughties are nearly behind us and what better way to bring the decade to a close than by bringing you the best of the sporting quotes from the last five years.
If you missed part one (2000-2004), fear not - just click here to see it in all its glory and to see the best offerings from 2009, click here.
If part one was all about the late, great Sir Bobby Robson, in part two his protege, Jose Mourinho, comes into his own. I could have filled the whole blog with the Special One's pearls of wisdom but in order to accomodate everyone else, I've picked out three of his best.
All that remains is for me to wish you all a Happy New Year and as usual, add your quotes below, plus any ideas about what we're going to call the next decade - the Tens, Teens?

Far too dominated by football quotes. No tennis ones, very few golf and rugby ones, only a couple of cricket quotes. Disappointing. Particularly as most of those sportsman are brighter than those involved in football and offer better quotes.

Scotsguy - I think you have answered your own question there by saying that other sportsman are brighter than footballers. This is full of football quotes because they come up with funny nonsense that lacks intelligence. Except for Ian Holloway of course who is a genuine comedy genius.

Not many great tennis quotes I can think of, but there was a nice one at the end of the Wimbledon final this year. Andy Roddick, who gave everything and still came up short to the resilience of Federer, still managed to joke about it during the interview when Roger said "I lost in the final last year, so I know how it feels", and Roddick said "yeah but you'd won it five years in a row before then" and tutted. Class act.

Fact of the matter is we all make mistakes and it would be a poor show if I accepted the plaudits when things were going OK and ignored the flak. I'll wait to find what you do before getting the job-swap wheels in motion - in the meantime, have a great night!
7. Scotsguy: Talking of flak...you're right, it's very top-heavy with footballers but it's also true to say that footballers say the funniest things - often without realising it. There are some good ones from other sports in there mind you - I particularly like the Stubbs-Hankey exchange!

Just seen this Wenger trio that The_Dark_Blue-King (writing in the first part of the decade's quotes) suggested I add. Sorry DBK - didn't see them it in time to make the main piece, but for the rest of you here they are in all their glory:
"When you give success to stupid people, it makes them more stupid sometimes and not more intelligent." - Wenger on Jose Mourinho
"It's like you wanting to marry Miss World and she doesn't want you, what can I do about it? I can try to help you, but if she does not want to marry you what can I do?" - Arsene Wenger on homesick striker Jose Antonio Reyes.
"It's like a child who is used to having ice cream whenever he wants. When it doesn't come when he asks he tends to get confused and nervous." - Arsene Wenger's view on the team's first blip of the season after surrending the lead against Crystal Palace and being knocked off the Premiership summit by Chelsea in November 2004.

I still think the Gordon Strachan quote about a surprise World Cup selection, as naughty as it might be, was one of the quotes of the decade.

Great compilation.
One that I would add would be Martin Jol shortly before he was sacked at Spurs. This was his reaction to club officials being seen in Spain talking to Juande Ramos:
"If my missus would go to Spain and I would see pictures of her I'd be gutted,but I always realised that she would come back because she speaks French, Dutch, English but no Spanish, so she can't talk to the b***er."

Here's a good quote to start off this decade from a 606-er while discussing the FA cup scores.
"From Ben, London, via text on 81111: "Just bet fifty quid on Peterborough to come back from the dead to win 4-2, come on Posh!""
Spurs went 3-0 up seconds after seeing this.

Chris,
Thx for linking the 2007 Mourhinos. What a loss. He makes Dame Edna Everidge look as tame as Mary Poppins.
Next to Mourhino, who would come second as most favourite quotesperson? 'Arry Redknapp for me. So many quotes and such quality.
Referring to a player returning from Africa to Upton Park with an upset tummy, 'Arry remarked "He must have eaten a dodgy missionary!"
'Arry was laughing with the bloke and not at him, PC Gestapo please note. Barry Humphries in his autobiography describes PC as the American disease and its relentless practitioners as The New Puritans. If you love Dame Edna you'll love the book, although it takes a few pages to take off.
