Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho admits his approach to football is more suited to England than Italy.

The former Chelsea manager has run into trouble over his interviews in the Italian media and explained: "Our Italian friends see football in a different way.

"In difficult moments, they see football as more of a drama.

"I have never been like that and that view improved further by working in England because there football is never a drama. In England football is always passion and pleasure.

"That is the feeling I want to give to my players tomorrow but for three weeks they have been speaking about the drama of Inter always going out in the last 16.

"I prefer to think in a different way. I prefer to think about the possibility of Inter knocking out the world champions. It is a different way at looking at the picture."
