FROM "SPECIAL ONE" TO THE "ONLY ONE" Jose Mourinho

Real Madrid's Jose Mourinho said that he should be labelled the "Only One" instead of the 'Special One', after becoming the only coach to win the top three leagues in European football.

Mourinho has won titles in Spain (once, with Real Madrid), Italy (twice, with Inter Milan) and England (twice, with Chelsea), as well as in his native Portugal (twice, with Porto).

"Like me or not, I am the only one who won the world's three most important leagues. So, maybe instead of the 'Special One', people should start calling me the 'Only One'," Mourinho said in an interview with Portuguese television channel SIC.

Mourinho, 49, was nicknamed the 'Special One' by the English press after referring to himself as just that, during a news conference following his arrival at Chelsea from Porto in 2004.

In an interview televised on Monday he explained that, as his career has progressed, he has become less selfish and less focused on his individual goals.

"Things have been going well for me, thank God. I am focused on others much more these days. The pleasure of winning with Inter Milan was seeing a club which had not won for 50 years winning again.

"That is what entices me more and more, instead of pursuing individual goals."

Barcelona's Lionel Messi, his teammate Andres Iniesta and Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo were named the top three finalists Tuesday for UEFA's Best Player in Europe award.

The three finalists, selected from an original list of 32 players, received the most votes from a panel of 53 reporters from each of the UEFA member associations. The final vote will be held live on Aug. 30 in Monaco during the UEFA Champions League group stage draw.

Messi won the award last season. He won the Ballon d'Or in 2009 and FIFA Player of the Year awards in 2009, 2010 and 2011. He is the leading candidate this year, having scored 73 goals in 60 matches for Barcelona en route to breaking the club's all-time scoring record. Messi beat out Ronaldo for the European sports media's Golden Shoe earlier this year. Iniesta was voted UEFA's Euro 2012 Best Player.

Juventus' Andrea Pirlo finished fourth in the voting, followed by Barcelona's Xavi Hernandez, Real Madrid's Iker Casillas and former Chelsea striker Didier Drogba (now with Chinese club Shanghai Shenhua). Eighth-place voting was tied between Chelsea's Petr Cech and Colombian star Radamel Falcao, of Atletico Madrid. Real Madrid's Mesut Ozil finished 10th.
