I wonder if any of the English journalists will ask Mourinho about Brendan.

The press conference was a bit bizarre to be honest.

The press are an absolute shower and the questions were predictably abysmal. Rodgers dealt with it well. He looked absolutely bemused at the cringeworthy questions about Steven Gerrard and Mourinho.
He gave a perfect "you lot must think I'm effing daft" look after the Mourinho question.
As soon as that question was asked i looked at his face and knew instantly we had someone who knew how to deal with these effers again.

Didn't get a chance to see it.

Did none of the journalists seriously not ask him about tactics, formations or what he's saw of the current players, etc?
Was it just all pish about why he's come up to such a pish league and what are Gerrard and Jose up to?

Must have been told before it started not to ask any questions about it, no way they wouldn't have slipped one or two in with Lawwell otherwise.

I missed the Mourinho question, what was it? Was listening whilst driving and it cut off a few times.

Thought he spoke very well though. Delighted to hear the bit about looking to the youth.
Has he been in contact?

What do you think of his return to football?

Brendan replied " has he returned?"

Next question
:lol:

Act well, at least they didn't ask if he has a magic hat.

Thought he gave a very considered and honest interview. He looks genuinely humbled to have the job and came across as good guy, but not one you'd want to cross...

Felt he answered the questions very well. There wasnt a patronising "this is the only club ive ever wanted to manage" message, but more of a stated "I want to be here now" message,

I also like his reference to Benfica and Porto. That is the objective to compete in europe as they do, depsite having the Spanish league on their door step.
