JOSE DON’T PLAN TO RETIRE EARLY

José Mourinho says he is keen to continue managing into his 70s, emulating his 73-year-old Crystal Palace counterpart Roy Hodgson with whom he drew 1-1 on Sunday. “I see it myself, yes, but who knows?” Mourinho said. “A big friend of mine on Thursday got a job in the Portuguese Premier League at the age of 74 (Jesualdo Ferreira at Boavista). He is a fantastic coach, incredible knowledge, incredible passion. Maybe you are tired of me because I’m here for 20 years, since 2000 when I got my first job at Benfica, but the reality is that at the age of 57, for the nature of the job, I am very young.”
