Back to more important matters.
Jose Mourinho is a fan of opposite number Gareth Ainsworth's rock-star locks: "Long, rock star, amazing." Which begs the question, what does Jose make of his own hair do?! "Always the same, old fashioned, white hair." Fair.
The Portuguese also doesn't fancy his chances of joining Ainsworth's band, Cold Blooded Hearts: "I only feel sorry I cannot sing with him because I will destroy his music."
"He must be a guy who enjoys life," added Mourinho. "He looks a happy guy and if to be happy, part of his life is to play the rock, to sing, to be part of the beautiful world that is music, he has to do it," said Mourinho.
"I remember somebody was saying, maybe he was saying it himself, that with a different haircut he would be seen as a great coach by others, but I don’t think it has anything to do with the haircut.
‘Pep Guardiola has no haircut. My haircut is always the same, old-fashioned, white-hair haircut. He has this long, rock-star hair, amazing. And he is a good coach - you only stay in the club for so long if you are good, you are promoted, you stay and fight in a difficult competition like the Championship.
"He knows what he wants. He knows clearly the way he wants to play and how to get the very best out of his players."
