Mourinho urges Real Madrid fans not to worry about him

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has urged fans to support his players in tonight's Champions League clash with Galatasaray.

Supporters' groups are planning a show of support for Mourinho, urging him to stay on next season.

"I'm grateful but I don't like it. I think football is in the stadium. The support is for the team, not for individuals. I don't like those kinds of situations in football. The club is more important than we are. The support that I want tomorrow is for the players who will be on the field, who are the ones who are going to play. That's what I want and, to me, that's fundamental," he said.
