New Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers says: "I left a really special club at Liverpool where I had had a wonderful time. I wanted to have a good rest and come away from the game a bit. I was fortunate enough to have opportunities to go to the Premier League or abroad.

"But my emotional attachment to the football club is very strong and has been for years. The more I thought about it, there was a draw for me. Celtic is one of the biggest clubs in the world.

"This is certainly not a step down. This is an institution and it is a huge honour to manager here. I want to continue with the dominance of Scottish football and make an impact in European football."

We heard earlier from former Chelsea winger Pat Nevin, let's get his character analysisof Jose Mourinho.

"From the very start of his career in coaching he has had this incredible self-belief, great knowledge and incredible attention to detail, but also this ability to think outside the box in a way some managers don't.

"He's very willing to change things and adapt things in more complex ways when he has to and when it has to be simple, he will be simple.

"He is also very good at the mind games, he understands the business of the game and every single part of the game you need to know he knows as well as anyone else.

"He covers every single base and they are all completely secondary to the home base, which is trophies and nobody but nobody in world football brings in the trophies like Jose Mourinho."

Dutch football writer Elko Born , externalwrites: "According to De Telegraaf, there are plans for Zlatan to become an 'assistant coach' at Manchester United after his playing career.

"To be clear: Zlatan will join as a player. He won't become a coach until after his retirement, probably in a few years."
