Highlights: José Mourinho: 'I do not accept in any way that my professionalism, my dignity and my heart for this work is questioned' "I've never missed a race in over 20 years of career, nor a training session - he added. "For me there are no illnesses, bad moods. For reasons that I'm not here to explain, I needed a day and I told the manager Pinto and the ownership and we agreed that the day after the derby would be a good day"

"I do not accept in any way that my professionalism, my dignity and my heart for this work is questioned. If there's a perfect example of professionalism, it's me." José Mourinho said this in his press conference on the eve of the match against AC Milan, referring to the day off he asked for on Thursday and on which he did not direct training at Trigoria. "I've never missed a race in over 20 years of career, nor a training session - he added - For me there are no illnesses, bad moods. For reasons that I'm not here to explain, I needed a day and I told the manager Pinto and the ownership and we agreed that the day after the derby would be a good day. I was out of Rome for 15 hours. It seems ridiculous to me to justify this."
