Kenyan international McDonald Mariga has heaped praise on Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho, picturing him as a cool person who should be loved by everyone.
Mariga worked with Mourinho at Inter Milan in 2010 when they lifted the Champions League League title.
He says the Portuguese is a nice tactician who is not understood by many.
"People who hate him don't understand him, they don't know him. He is a very cool person, a very good person and a very good coach. I can assure you, if you meet Mourinho now, he is a very good person," he said.
"With players, he is good if you do what he wants. He makes sure everyone has a job. If someone works the way he doesn't like, he will be mad at him. But if you work the way he wants, he is a very good person, a straightforward person, who jokes a lot. I never had a problem with him," revealed the international.
"We didn't have someone who had a problem with Mourinho, on the pitch and off the pitch," concludes Mariga.
The Kenyan international currently plays in Italian Serie B.
