​Ex-Man Utd boss Mourinho: I don't care that people hate me

Former Manchester United, Chelsea and Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho is okay with being hated.

The Portuguese coach knows that his style and success means he will never find adoration or respect among rival supporters.

The 55-year-old has won league titles in Portugal, England, Italy and Spain, along with two Champions League titles with Porto and Inter respectively.

"It is my own nature," he told beINSPORTS.

"I arrive at the club, I wear the shirt and I only take the dirty and sweaty shirt off the day I left.

"I fight for the club and I don't care about my image and I don't care about any consequences.

"I go to Real Madrid, I become an enemy of Barcelona. I go to Inter and in Torino I cannot go in because people hate me there.

"Arsenal fans, maybe not anymore, but when I was Chelsea manager they hate me. I played 15 times against them, I won 12 and drew three. I never lost. They hate me."
