The Chelsea boss had some interesting recent comments regarding the team's league rivals.

Jose Mourinho is a manager who has a proven track record of success in each country he has managed thus far.

Two Champions League titles with Porto and Inter, combined with a slew of league honors in Portugal, Italy, Spain, and England have many rating him among the top coaches in world football today.

However, he does have a reputation of not staying at one location too long and appears to not have deviated from this trend if his comments in a recent interview are any indication.

When asked about the possibility of taking over at a rival Premier League club, the Portuguese tactician responded wryly as per English publication Metro:

"Yes...I know football and know I won’t be here five, eight, ten years if I don’t manage to win. I don’t work in comfort zones [as] it doesn’t fit my personality."

Naturally, rivals include teams like Liverpool and Arsenal fall into that category; interestingly, Reds boss Brendan Rodgers also claimed earlier this year that Mourinho was highly interested in taking over many years back before he assumed the position.

Should he make the switch someday, it would not be the first time the 51-year-old has managed rival clubs, having begun his career with Benfica before moving on to Porto less than two years later.
