Former Chelsea boss José Mourinho shared his feeling ahead of his Stamford Bridge return with Sky Sports, admitting he left with no rancour:
“To be sacked is football. Many of the best managers have had their moment to be sacked. Of course there are exceptions, but in modern football especially, it can happen to anyone. If it was a club where I gave nothing, I think it would have been more difficult.
“When I leave a club when in two different periods I gave titles and gave the fans some of the best moments that they have had then you leave with the feeling ‘I have done my job'
Mourinho spoke about his feelings after being sacked:
“I just felt ‘I’ve no job’. It is difficult to work in the next couple of weeks and months. Probably the best thing for me was to work only the next summer. So I just tried to enjoy my life immediately,’ added the Portuguese.
“I remember I left the training ground, it was not nice for my family to have so many people at the door for a couple of days but then it was finished. Then I start doing my life in a very normal way.
“I don’t think they want to, but even if they want to, they couldn’t delete me from Chelsea history. They belong to my history too. No bad feelings."
