Mourinho hits back at critics
Real Madrid head coach Jose Mourinho hit back at his critics after seeing his side dismiss Deportivo La Coruna 6-1 at the Santaigo Bernabeu.
Mourinho still believes that he is doubted in some sections of the Spanish media and used his post-match press conference to put his side of the story.
He told reporters: “If you have doubts about a coach who has won what I have, then you have to explain what qualities a coach should have to have the right to work in your country.
“You have to tell me if I have to have won three Champions Leagues and seven domestic league titles. I have two Champions Leagues and six domestic league titles.
“Is that enough to have the right to work here? If so, great, I'll continue with my work.”
Meanwhile, Mourinho refused to get too carried away by his side’s six-goal romp, adding: “We are not the best team in the world yet for having beaten Depor 6-1.
“We are under construction and neither the result nor the applause of the fans makes me think our work is done. The work continues.”
