Mourinho: "My message is clear for you to understand: I'm a football coach, I was hired to coach. A coach has functions, including choosing who plays. I do not do my compositions team playing toss. I am discussing, reflecting, analyzing, studying for many hours, watching matches, all trying to agree with my ideas. I like Diego Lopez more than Iker Casillas. It is simple. This is not a personal decision. I appreciate a goalkeeper who plays well with his feet, which is good in the air and is a phenomenon in its goals. Similarly, Iker Casillas can say he prefers a coach like Del Bosque or Pellegrini. While I am the coach of Real Madrid. Diego Lopez will play normally. It is simple. I agree that people say that I know nothing about football because of this choice. But respect a coach who decides that it is Diego Lopez who plays. This is my decision. Why Nacho played? Because I like him , he is growing. Varane plays because he represents the future of Real Madrid with Sergio Ramos. "
When asked if he thought resign after the elimination of Real Madrid in the Champions League against Borussia Dortmund, Mourinho replied:
"No, I thought of continuing "
Mourinho: "Iniesta is free to say whatever he wants, whatever. I think he should take care of his own club. "
Mourinho confirmed that Diego Lopez will indeed hold in the league match against Malaga tomorrow, adding that the defense would consist of Nacho, Varane, Albiol and Coentrao.
Mourinho: "The problem of Pepe is easy to analyze, it is called Varane. A 31-years-old lost his place to a 19 year old. That's life. Pepe's life has changed sportingly. He is frustrated. "
Mourinho: "I will stay at Real until the last day of my contract, but I do not want to take one more euro. "
