Serie A coaching legend Zdenek Zeman says he's a big fan of Jose Mourinho - but not of his Inter Milan.

The former Lazio, Roma and Napoli boss is famous for his public rants.

Zeman said: "Inter do not excite me at all, they're not Real Madrid or Barcelona. The entertainment factor is zero, although I'm not too interested in the way Roma play either. They are both practical.

"Mourinho is a great communicator who always says what he thinks, so in those terms I see myself in him."

The Special One has always courted controversy and this week fired up the criticism of Juventus following a refereeing error.

"It seems like nothing has changed in the last few years," agreed Zeman. "Recent rounds leave many suspicions, as the penalty they received against Lazio was absurd.

"When certain decisions go the same way for two games in a row, one does tend to think the worst."
