Jose Mourinho

There’s only one Jose Mourinho, The Special One who creates pressure on opposing teams by using suggestion to turn up the heat and Inter’s February Champions League home and away leg with Manchester United will be no different.

Now, the former Chelsea boss is turning up the heat on old foe Sir Alex Ferguson, telling the Gazzetta dello Sport that the Serie A giants will be in good shape for the two-legged clash.

Mourinho said: “In February the real Champions League starts and I believe that at the end of February Inter will be better than they were at the end of 2008.

“I really wanted Manchester United because I don’t see any great difference between them Bayern, Liverpool or Barcelona. I like pressure and emotion, so these win-or-die games, playing against the Champions of the world, are perfect for me.

“I already have an idea of how I will play against Manchester at home and then, at Old Trafford, the objective will be to take the team to another level of play.”

United’s season rolls on full throttle until the Inter meeting, whereas the Italians will be kicking their heels. Still, ‘The Special One’ isn’t concerned.

He added: “Before playing us United haven’t got any tough games, so we won’t be under prepared.”

Again slamming Wayne Rooney for the apparent stamp on Aalborg’s Kasper Risgard which went unpunished recently, Jose seethed: “I don’t like the fact that in football there are different standards. I was amazed that Rooney was not suspended.”
