Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho voiced his disagreement with critics who think the Capital outfit does not play attractive football.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan manager is unhappy with unfair criticism levied against his team. He stated that Los Blancos incorporate an attractive brand of attacking football and those who state otherwise are not true to themselves.
Mourinho’s Real Madrid have been labelled as boring by some critics, who believe that the squad goes out on the pitch to grind out results.
The Portuguese tactician dismissed the notions, stating that his side has gotten results with attractive football.
"Real Madrid play very well. If anyone says that we don't and that we are only interested in results, they are lying," he pointed out in an interview with the club's official website on Friday.
He added that the good efforts of players on the pitch have been rewarded with packed stadiums.
Mourinho pointed out that fans would not have been flocking to the stadium had they not been playing attractive football.
"We play well, we entertain and the people want to see us. We have the Santiago Bernabeu, whatever the game and against whoever, always completely full and it takes more than a few people to fill the Bernabeu."
Real Madrid restart the 2011/12 La Liga campaign after the Christmas holidays as league leaders. They are top of the points table with a three-point advantage over rivals and reigning champions, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, after 16 domestic fixtures.
The manager also turned attention to recent media reports linking him with a move back to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749. He stated that he has never made his admiration for English football a secret but is content with life in Madrid.
He reaffirmed his desire to continue with Real Madrid at this junction, where they are in the middle of a promising project.
"This project has some great years in front of it. The best is still to come and it would not be very intelligent if I have been dedicated since the first day, giving my heart to this project only to then think of leaving it halfway through," he explained.
