Inter Milan boss Mourinho: They also didn't like Jesus Christ

Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho has compared himself to Jesus Christ when talking about his first season in Italy. "Training Inter, I feel a little like Robin Hood," Mourinho said. "Even Jesus Christ wasn't liked by everybody, what hope is there for me."

The former Chelsea boss then took the opportunity to lay into his rivals, first Milan and then Juventus.

"We have Inter Channel that has 45,000 subscribers," he explained. "Milan have the TV, newspapers and many more things, while Juve have Tuttosport and all that comes behind it."

On the way he and Inter are treated by Italian football, Mourinho also said: "It's intellectual prostitution.

"It doesn't bother me if people hate me. The interisti know the job I do for them."
