-- Mourinho had the following to say:
“After the game we were together in my office. He asked what did you say to the press young man. I repeated it to him and we laughed together. We spoke and we drank. When we go to Man United I will bring a very good bottle of wine because the wine we drank was very bad and he was complaining.
“At Old Trafford it will be my birthday so I will go with a beautiful bottle of Portuguese wine to enjoy with him at the end of the game.
“He is wonderful, a great manager, he is clever and he uses his power and his prestige. I don’t think he should be punished. I just think referees shouldn’t allow it.”
-- Just an interesting inside look to some of the more personal aspects of relationships between coaches of two really good and accomplished managers plus it goes to show that you can be both competitive and professional (after the match, of course).
