Let the players take the glory, says Mourinho with Chelsea on the brink

"When people say something about my team, or my players or my club, sometimes
I feel I don't have to fight back," he said. "I don't have to be involved in
fights every day or every week. I am not saying that I don't like a fight
sometimes - that's my nature - but I think I have learned I must be in control
of the situation and not react.
"For example this morning I was preparing myself to speak to the press and I
was expecting a question about Sir Alex and now I am prepared to say I don't
want to comment. Sometimes I feel I don't have to be involved every day. I
was involved almost every day in the press, I was criticised by other
managers, players
"At the end of the season I hope we will be champions and that will be the
time for me to disappear because I want the players to enjoy themselves,"
Mourinho said. "I want them to be the faces of the success. I have made
mistakes I can analyse the situation from the wrong point of view but I have
always tried to do the best for my team. I look forward to the day when we
are mathematically champions because I want to see the happiness of the team
- they deserve that happiness."
"It was a psychological fight for my players to understand that was the way I
wanted them to play," he said. "I told them not to be scared and not to be
influenced by what people say or that Chelsea were being called 'boring'. And
'boring Chelsea' are not boring any more. We went on a run [mid-November into
December] where we scored a lot of goals and that was a beautiful period for
us."
Mourinho confirmed that he had two years left on his contract, and he also
hinted that his agent, Jorge Mendes, "might have had" discussions with the
club. "There are no reasons for me to want to go," he said. "I'm sure the
club want me to stay and they have no reason to sack me. I am very happy
with everything around me - especially the players."

"Of course, I have made mistakes,” Mourinho, breaking his self-imposed
two-month silence, said. “But all I am doing is trying to do the best for
my team. I was involved in things almost every day, almost every day in
the press, and I was criticised by other managers and players. But what
matters is my club and my players. My image is not so important.
"No, I'm not sorry for these things. But maybe sometimes I should be outside
these comments. What people say about me, my club and my players, I feel I
shouldn’t have to fight that. I don’t want to be involved in fights every
week. I don’t say I don’t like a fight — that is my nature — but sometimes
you must be in control and not react.”
"It was time to stop, to walk away,” he said. “It was why you have not seen
much of me lately. If life in football is being loved by the home fans and
hated by the away fans, that’s the way I want to carry on. When we become
champions, I will disappear for a little bit. I want the players to enjoy it
for themselves. They deserve it.”
Mourinho was speaking at Stamford Bridge at the launch of Chelsea’s
association with CLIC Sargent, the UK’s largest children’s cancer charity.
"This is a beautiful project,” he said. Having taken part in a peace
initiative between Israeli and Palestinian footballers in Tel Aviv last month,
he again showed the more human side of his character. “People think my
life is football,” he said. “My life is my kids.”
