Chelsea boss Mourinho has no regrets over playing career

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has no regrets over his playing career.

Mourinho admits he was never going to make it big as a player.

"I didn't try. As every young kid likes football, I don't think at ten years old a kid wants to be a manager. A kid wants to be a player," he told the Radio Times.

"The feeling I was getting was that I can play - at the professional level. Low level, second division. But that's not what I was born for."
