“I came to the Premier League in 2004, becoming the winner of the Champions League. That year, only two foreign coaches came to the Premier League: I and UEFA Cup Rafa Benites, who won with Valencia and went to Liverpool. I won the Champions League from Port and went to Celese.

Nowadays, coaches whose names I don’t even know come to the Premier League, and I do not show disrespect, it’s just true. Some coaches are chosen, based on data, numbers, not on victories. It seems that playing and looking now is more important than winning. In this regard, everything has changed radically lately, ”Mourinho said.
