Jose Mourinho admits he was a lazy and annoying player of the type he would immediately get rid of on a free transfer now that he is a successful manager.
The Tottenham boss, an undistinguished midfielder in his playing days, was asked about comments made by Baltemar Brito, his team-mate at Rio Ave between 1980 and 1982.
Brito, who was also part of Mourinho's coaching teams at Uniao de Leiria, Porto and Chelsea, suggested in an interview that his colleague was annoying, moaned a lot and was lazy in his playing days.
