Jose Mourinho has broken his silence on the infamous touchline incident involving former Chelsea team doctor Eva Carneiro, addressing the controversy for the first time in over a decade in his new three-part Netflix docu-series, "MOURINHO."

The 2015 Premier League clash between Chelsea and Swansea City saw Mourinho become incensed when Carneiro and physio Jon Fearn went onto the pitch to attend to Eden Hazard, who had fallen.

Carneiro alleged that Mourinho sexually discriminated against her during the altercation, reportedly calling her the "daughter of a wh***" in Portuguese. At the time, Mourinho publicly criticized her decision to treat Hazard, calling her "impulsive and naive." Following the incident, Carneiro was removed from first-team duties and left Chelsea a month later.

Mourinho and Chelsea eventually reached a settlement after Carneiro pursued claims of discrimination and constructive dismissal. The terms of the settlement remain undisclosed, though reports during the tribunal suggested Chelsea had offered £1.2 million to settle the matter.

Speaking in the documentary, Mourinho stated his view that a female doctor should be treated the same as a male doctor, asserting, "For me, a lady doctor is the same as a man’s doctor." He added, "So, as always, I use my vocabulary when I’m not happy. There are words in moments where the tension is very, very high."

Footage from the match shows Mourinho shouting expletives, including "f*** off, man" and "f*** you, man," towards Carneiro and Fearn as they attended to Hazard. Mourinho defended his actions in the series, saying, "I’m not a doctor, but my eyes know when a player is injured, and they know when a player is not injured. I knew that he was not injured, but the doctors went to the pitch, and in that moment we were left with nine players."

Hazard, who played under Mourinho for two years, commented in the documentary that while "it was nothing special" in his view, "with Jose everything is bigger." The incident left Chelsea with nine men on the field for a period, as Hazard had to leave the pitch for treatment, and goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois had already been sent off.

John Terry, Chelsea's captain at the time, noted in the series that there was an understanding among players and staff that the manager preferred the medical team not to come onto the field unless a player's injury was severe. "Medically, he would say unless it’s really, really bad, then they’re [the team doctors] not coming on. That was the understanding for us as players; the medical staff, everyone bought into that," Terry said.

Chelsea issued an unreserved apology to Carneiro, acknowledging the distress caused. Mourinho, however, did not offer an apology at the time of the incident or during the tribunal, and the documentary does not indicate any change in his stance.

The "MOURINHO" docu-series chronicles the manager's career, highlighting both his successes and his numerous controversies. The series features anecdotes from former players, including Terry and Frank Lampard, offering insights into Mourinho's coaching philosophy and methods, which have resulted in 26 major trophies throughout his career.
