Iconic phrases used by Jose Mourinho and Sir Alex Ferguson added to the dictionary.
Both men have achieved incredible success in football and their huge impact on the game has now been recognised in an unusual way.
A collection of 15 football terms, including 'Panenka', 'Rabona' and the 'Cruyff turn', have been inducted into the dictionary, along with famous terms used by Mourinho and Ferguson. Roma boss Mourinho, who has also had spells in charge of Chelsea, Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Manchester United during his managerial career, has made his way into the dictionary courtesy of a slightly ironic phrase he once used - 'Park the bus'.Mourinho first used the term to describe Tottenham's tactics in a game in 2004, but football fans know that throughout his career 'The Special One' has been guilty of doing that himself on more than one occasion.
