And he adds that now “I enjoy being a media analyst because I feel like I can make a difference. I don't want audiences, it's not my job, others need to go in some direction or be extreme and aggressive to make a name for themselves. I go with two perspectives. The first, by myself, since I am not working, I am on vacation and I meet people. The second part is to do a service to football, I say what I see without having an agenda ”.
Regarding the semi-final of the Champions League between two of their former clubs, Real Madrid and Chelsea. states that “I have great respect for the clubs where I have worked before. If one of my previous clubs plays, I will usually go with them because I have connections with people and with the fans. If Real Madrid were playing against a team that means nothing, who would want them to win? The real Madrid. But what if you play Chelsea, like in the semi-finals this year? I would go with my friends. Are there the same people as when I was there? The same president? The same owner? If one day I had to go to Italy to coach an Inter rival, I wouldn't think twice. I have that professional way of looking at things and I feel good ”.
Finally, Mourinho talks about Harry kane. “The way Harry Kane is playing now, doing the moves that he does… When did I have a forward who did those things? Benzema. Because Drogba was not that, Ibrahimovic was not that, Lukaku was not that.
