Mourinho: We are similar but Klopp not as calm as me

By Daily Sports on January 14, 2017

Jose Mourinho says he agrees with Jurgen Klopp that they share similarities but the Manchester United boss insists he is calmer than his Liverpool rival.

Ahead of their huge Merseyside v Manchester clash at Old Trafford on Super Sunday, Klopp's view that he shares an angry streak with Mourinho was put to the United boss.

And he said: "Probably we have some qualities that are similar. For sure we have other qualities that make us really different personalities and managers.

"I think he wants to play the game as much as I do. He’s as motivated as I am. I am not sure he is so calm as I am. But it is just one more big game in our careers.

"Everyone has his own personality and style of coaching and leading. I would like to win like every manager likes to win."

United drew 0-0 at Anfield in the reverse fixture earlier this season as Mourinho tasted the bitterness of the Liverpool-United rivalry for the first time.

The Portuguese insists his side are in a better place than that game in October and he hopes the Old Trafford support will give them the emotional edge in this historic fixture.

"It’s three points plus the emotional side of it for the fans and the players that are in the club for a long time, and I think they understand the feeling better than I do," he said.

“But I am here for a few months and I understand, step-by-step, the dimension of that feeling, of that good rivalry. I always feel rivalry is a very good thing for the football clubs.

“What I want from the fans I already have, especially because they gave to us in the difficult moments. To have bad results but to have the fans with me and the players, and to feel that, is the best feeling and the most important feeling.

"Now the question is to have a little extra in a match that, for them, means a little bit more. They have to make us feel that feeling. We felt that clearly at Anfield." (skysports.com)
