Wright-Phillips praises Mourinho

(GSM) – Manchester City winger Shaun Wright-Phillips has showered former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho with praise, saying that the Portuguese tactician’s training techniques were impressive. Wright-Phillips also stated that he regards Mourinho as a “very good family man”.

Wright-Phillips believes he learned valuable lessons from Mourinho’s training regime.

“The training was geared towards the way players like to play,” he told The Independent.

“It was amazing, quick, fast. If you needed to try things to make you improve it was always there in the session.”

The England winger’s praise was not restricted to Mourinho’s coaching attributes as the 28-year-old says the Inter boss has an honorable approach to man-management.

“Mourinho was good; a very good family man,” said Wright-Phillips.

“If people had children and there were days we had to come in he would let you bring kids in and mess about with them while the training session was going on.”
