More quotes by Jose Mourinho
It’s not important how we play. If you have a Ferrari and I have a small car, to beat you in a race I have to break your wheel or put sugar in your tank.
Jose Mourinho
Ronaldinho is better than Cristiano Ronaldo, but neither are as good as Leo Messi. He holds numerous records, such as the most goals scored in a single La Liga season and the most goals scored in a calendar year. I'm more worried about being a good person than being the best football player in the world. He has everything. We must protect him.
Jose Mourinho
I don't have to be jealous of Barcelona because they have 100 years of history and have won the European Cup once. I have only been managing for five years and I have the same amount of Champions League trophies to my name.
Jose Mourinho

Jose Mourinho

Jose Mourinho
If at the end of the season I'm leaving the club, you have the right to come to me and say: 'Jose, you are a liar'

You don't have to love me. You don't even have to like me, but you will respect me.
Jose Mourinho
Please don't call me arrogant, but I'm European champion and I think I'm a special one.
Jose Mourinho
Sometimes you see beautiful people with no brains. Sometimes you have ugly people who are intelligent, like scientists.
Jose Mourinho
So I know all about the ups and downs of football, I know that one day I will be sacked.
Jose Mourinho
To be the ultimate team, you must use your body and your mind. Draw up on the resources of your teammates. Choose your steps wisely and you will win. Remember, only teams succeed.
Jose Mourinho
When I face the media, maybe I don't feel it now, here with you, because it's a different sort of interview, but when I face the media before or after the game, I feel it as part of the game.
Jose Mourinho
I asked the players: 'Do you want to enjoy the game? Or do you want to enjoy after the game?' The players told me they wanted to enjoy after the game so I said: 'OK, then we will enjoy after the game'.
Jose Mourinho
The only way to stop Messi is to double mark him. One player to stay on him and the other to help out.
Jose Mourinho
But the most important part of everything is to be happy.
Jose Mourinho
Arsenal have won that advantage, nobody gave it to them. By playing fantastic football and by winning matches and by winning trophies, they won that respect that the opponent has for them.
