March 8th, 2009 by Live Football News Leave a reply »

Jose Mourinho feels that he has got what it requires for taking over the job at Old Trafford when Sir Alex Ferguson finally decides to call it quits.

Mourinho’s Inter Milan, who are topping the tables in Serie A, will be traveling to United on Wednesday for their return leg in the Champions League.

With a 0-0 draw at San Siro in the first leg of last 16, Inter will be fancying their chances and looking towards creating a major upset by beating Manchester United, who won the competition in Moscow last May.

If this result does take place, there are possibilities that Mourinho will be in the spotlight again and may be the next one to take the charge of the Red Devils.

During an interview, Mourinho said, ‘I’ve got big jobs left in me, but do not know which ones to commit.’

‘If you are looking to rule me out of ever getting an opportunity as the Manchester United Manager, I cannot.’

‘Special managers are required by special clubs and hence there is a possibility for me to get a stint. However, in football nothing can be predicted.’

‘England offered me the job for coaching their national side, which I believe is the biggest show of approval of my prowess.’

‘So, I’m sure that whenever Sir Alex is going to hang up his boots, they’ll be looking for the best in the world and I fall in that category.’

In spite of all the rumors revolving around other manager, there is no doubt that the former Chelsea Manager can be a perfect replacement for Sir Alex Ferguson. Even defender Rio Ferdinand believes that no one can do the job better than Mourinho.
