MOURINHO: "A TOUGH, WELL ORGANISED OPPONENT"

"I took every player that wasn't away on international duty. I only rested Zanetti and Milito"

VADUZ - José Mourinho spoke about his team selection after Saturday's 2-1 friendly win over FC Vaduz in Liechtenstein.
He said: "I took the players who didn't go away with their national teams, resting only Zanetti, Milito and the injured Stankovic. We respected the friendly and Vaduz. We had the chance to keep our players in form. They were all professional, they all gave a serious performance. It wasn't just an important test for Arnautovic and Quaresma. They all played seriously, following the example of a man like Materazzi who was an example again today. We faced a tough, very well organised opponent who have a good coach. They made it hard for us."

Mourinho also commented on the interview published in today's The Times. "I have already said what I had to say in a statement on the club's official website. Every now and then there's an interview that I haven't done. It probably comes from the Moon or from Mars... For a while I have only been doing press conferences or declarations on Inter Channel, but then other things come out..."
