    'There was always empathy'published at 12:12

    Football

    Jose Mourinho: "It's curious that I played so many times against Manchester United with other clubs and there was empathy. I was pushed by that feeling to say sometimes things my clubs were not happy with. For example when I won with Real Madrid I said the best team had lost. Not many people were happy with that."

    'Forget the last three years'published at 12:10 British Summer Time 27 May 2016

    More from Jose Mourinho: "I think we can look at our club in two perspectives - one is the past three years and another is the history. I prefer to forget the last three years. I prefer to focus on the giant club I have in my hands now. 

    "What the fans are expecting me to say is that I want to win. The players need to hear that, but I think we can really, it's not just to say it. I want to give what I have and what I don't have. To give everything to go in the direction we want."

    Jose Mourinho: "I think I am in the right moment in my career. Manchester United is one of these clubs where you need really to be prepared. It's what I used to call a giant club. Giant clubs must be for the best managers. I think I'm ready for it. I could say I'm happy, proud honoured, but the reality is what I love is to work and I cannot wait for 7 July."

    The Reckonist: Can you feel that United fans? That is not hope. Its belief. Its been missing a long time.

    Grundy: All this talk of Pep v Jose, its likely Benitez v Di Matteo will meet in the Championship next year too remember.

    Pete Roo: If Di Matteo joins Villa, that means there will be two Champions League-winning managers in the Championship next season, with Rafa Benitez at Newcastle.

    Kaka has been called up to the Brazil squad for next month's Copa America in the United States.

    The Orlando City midfielder, 34, will replace Bayern Munich's Douglas Costa, who was removed from the squad because of an injury to his left thigh.

    Ex-AC Milan and Real Madrid player Kaka has been a regular in coach Dunga's squads, without getting much game time.

    He has won 91 caps and scored 29 goals, but has only played 60 minutes for his country in three years.
