Inter coach Jose Mourinho has admitted that he misses the English Press.

The former Chelsea gaffer has had problems with the Italian press, since replacing Roberto Mancini as Inter coach.

“It is impossible to compare the Italian Press to the English one. If you want to compare the Italian to the Spanish or the Portuguese, then you can, but in England it is a whole different approach,” he said in a Press conference.

“For example, Portugal is a country with 10 million inhabitants and, like Italy, it has three daily newspapers dedicated solely to sport.

“In England there are no sports papers, just two pages in each newspaper every day and on Monday a supplement of six or seven pages.

“There is Sky Sports who talk about football a bit every day, but nothing more than that. After matches there is a flash interview lasting one minute and then a Press conference for five minutes. You cannot compare the experiences, it is impossible. The English Press is fantastic.”
