Mourinho: We played spectacular football
Jose Mourinho believes that Barcelona is no longer the example to follow in football after it was dethroned by Real Madrid in La Liga and by Chelsea in the Champions League last term, Goal.com reported.
"I think the time has come where people start talking less about Barcelona, and that people are no longer trying to make comparisons with them," he was quoted as saying by France Football.
"Why would people talk about Barca? Real Madrid are Spanish champions, and Chelsea are European champions. Barcelona are neither of the two at the moment."
"I love to win things and Barcelona do just that. They have won a lot of titles and will continue to do so in the future. However, I prefer Madrid's philosophy. We were very efficient last season, and played at an impressive level," Mourinho explained.
He added, "We played beautiful and spectacular football. I enjoy Madrid's style of play. The guy who can convince me that there's one style that's more attractive than the others has yet to be born.”
