Here’s a round-up of what the three-time Premier League winner has said about Liverpool in recent months.
Jose Mourinho’s next job
In an interview with The Telegraph, Mourinho acknowledged the fact that he was not in the running for the Liverpool job.
The only thing I want is that it has to be fair.
“Do you think if I was at a big Premier League club and we were sixth, seventh, eighth, in the table, I still have a job?
It’s not possible I go to a club almost relegated and the objective is to win the Champions League.
It’s good but it is not fair.”
Ending Liverpool’s title hopes
Liverpool and Chelsea built a new-found rivalry during Mourinho’s first spell at Chelsea, centred around their battles in the Champions League, duelling against Rafa Benitez’s team.
The west London side helped thwart the Reds’ title bid that season as Demba Ba infamously took advantage of Steven Gerrard’s misfortune, in between Chelsea competing in a Champions League semi-final tie.
“For us, it was about reaching the Champions League final, but I couldn't go and play Liverpool with our Under 18s,” Mourinho recalled on Jon Obi Mikel’s The Obi One podcast.
We were on the bus and the guys outside were selling shirts with "Liverpool Champions" on, and you can't allow that as Chelsea.
