After two weeks of the silent treatment, Jose Mourinho finally addressed the media in Valdebebas's press room, where he answered questions about Nuri Sahin, the game against Levante, Eladio Parames, Mourinho's spokesman's, twitter account, and the rumor that he could be joining the Premier League next season.
I think you should know my answer, you should ask your sources. You say they are anonymous sources, but I think they are just imaginary. I don't feed rumors. If they are anonymous, ask them, if they are imaginary, figure it out.
He is a little bit better. He will be on the bench for the second game in a row. In the game against Getafe, I decided to change other players, but he could have minutes tomorrow depending on my needs and the game itself.
Levante's hopes of qualifying for a European competition have almost disappeared, but Mourinho thinks they could be very dangerous in tomorrow's match.
They deserve credit, not for what they did when they beat us but for their current situation. They should finish fourth to sixth this year. This is an amazing job by the coach, the players and the fans.
Özil and Kaka have showed they can play together, but Mourinho still remembers the press and the fans' lack of confidence in them.
I have good memory and I remember how you and your partners criticized me after playing both of them in Almeria or Coruña. But the Spanish press is that way, like the sea. It comes and then it goes back.
Jose Mourinho's spokesman has harshly criticized some Barcelona players, Spanish newspapers and even former Real Madrid coach Berndt Schuster in his personal Twitter acount (@realeladio). The journalists in Valdebebas asked Mourinho about this issue and the Portuguese coach was very clear.
I don't have anything to do with his Twitter account. He works for me but he also has a personal life and an opinion. I also must say that I don't have a Facebook profile, I don't like these social networks, I must be very old.

Hala Mou!
His pimp hand was strong in those comments; comments that swiped across the faces of the Spanish press with the force of Cat 5 hurricane.
The press does ebb and flow like the tide and should not be taken too seriously at any moment.
I hope Mister manages Madrid for many more years and wins many more titles for Los Blancos. I think those booking his flight for England might want to hold off. Notice of his departure was very premature.
He seems optimistic about Sahin, which is good to see
Maybe Nuri is finally getting over the post-injury mental block that is so hard to understand.

He's playing with fire
Xavi and Fabregas have to be subbed in if they’re gonna turn this thing around…
hey, we still need to win tomorrow!
Hasta el final, vamos Real.

Levante
I hope Mou puts a full force Madrid against Levante we need to make it 10 points, I can’t stress enough on the word “NEED”!
but man Barca suck without a midfield (i.e. Xavi and Iniesta), looks like Biscuits diving was sorely missed in this match. Flop of the match was Valdes, poor clearences from him led to the third goal.
What the hell! What is going on with Barca? Wow 10 points. Crazy.

Potentially 10 points I should say.

It is not 10 points yet and until it is not, we can say it is. Levante is a good team and we don’t have %100 at hand. But man Barca is making it too easy for us. I liked the idea of winning the league with thrill. Like Capello’s time.
I think if we win the game tomorrow, and the gap remains like that they will give us a guard of honor in camp new. And pep will join rijkaard.
