Jose Mourinho says he will return to England when he leaves Real Madrid - but reckons he will not get the chance to replace Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.

Mourinho insists he is still enjoying his work and midfielder Michael Essien claimed the manager always has a smile on his face. However, there is no escaping his fractious relationship with those who follow Madrid's fortunes so closely, as he pointed out when asked to comment on the Spanish newspaper depiction of Wayne Rooney as a "hooligan" this morning. "I didn't read it," said Mourinho. "I don't know if it was written in that context, calling him a hooligan, or completely different. "But if I can say one thing on behalf of Rooney, I was called worse than that, week by week." You can only watch the best UEFA Champions League coverage here on Sky Sports.
