I am an icon for feeling at ease with myself. “For me, that is the best concept of an ‘icon’. You don’t care what other people think, or what they say, you just care about the way you feel. To be ready and adapted for a specific moment.” Mourinho also believes that his reputation can go before him at times, with the criticism levelled at him by rivals often driven by a fear factor that surrounds his success.He added: “I am recognised in the four corners of the Earth, in every stadium in the world there will be some reaction from the fans. “It normally starts with an insult – or a song. For me to sit down, or perhaps… to do other things. But I just wave and in the end they are happy, and then they want a picture. "So I feel good among the football lovers around the world.“During the game, they don’t like me, maybe they fear me or fear the team, but before or after the match it feels good.”</blockquote>
