Jose declares peace with Roman
15 January 2007
The Chelsea manager is delighted to have ended the cold war at Stamford Bridge, which saw him and owner Abramovich at odds for the second half of last season and sparked rumours the Portuguese could quit.
"I had a very good and long meeting with Abramovich at Stamford Bridge last week," Mourinho said in the News of the World.
"It left everything clear between us so there is no doubt, no doubt at all. I know what he thinks, I know what he feels, I know what he wants. And he knows me as a person, as a manager and he knows the way I work.
"It was an easy, long and enjoyable meeting and I was more than delighted - the air is clear again and there is no problem. We have a professional relationship and we understand each other."
Mourinho, currently leading Chelsea on their tour of America, is more determined than ever to see out his contract, which expires in 2010.
"I am so happy here because England is at the top for football," he said.
"I am in my fourth season here and if I can carry on five, six, seven, eight years, then I will go on without a problem. I have no desire to change and try something different in Italy or Spain. I don't have that desire."
