The press love him

After a relationship with the Spanish media that made Frosty the Snowman look like a good source of heat, Mourinho is as he puts it, happy to be back where he belongs.

That is not just in the heart of Chelsea fans but the British press too, who love Jose. Luckily for them the feeling is mutual.

Even when the results were not going quite the way Chelsea wanted, the stick from the press was relatively tame.

Had that been a different manager, all hell would have broken lose. Remember Rafa’s time in charge?
