    SOUNDBITE: (English) Jose Mourinho, Chelsea manager

    (Q: The Rooney rule is used NFL, do you think football is doing enough to bring in black managers do you think a quota should happen in football or is it something that isn't needed?)

    "There is no racism in football. If you are good, you are good. If you are good you get the job, if you are good you prove that you deserve the job and football is not stupid to close doors to top people. So if you are top you are top."
