Jose is just like me! Felix Magath compares himself to Chelsea boss Mourinho
FULHAM manager Felix Magath aimed a thinly-veiled dig at Arsenal's Arsene Wenger and Manchester City's Manuel Pellegrini - by likening himself to Jose Mourinho.
Magath locks horns with Mourinho for the first time in the Premier League when Fulham host Chelsea tomorrow (3pm).
And while he claims there are a number of great managers in England, Magath believes he is most similar to the Special One.
"I don't care about who is the manager on the other side," he said.
Mourinho is the one who is similar to me
"Here you have great managers - Pellegrini, Wenger, Mourinho.
"Mourinho has won a title with every team he has managed.
"[So] maybe Mourinho is the one who is similar to me."
Magath has won the Bundesliga twice with Bayern Munich and took unheralded Wolfsburg to the German title in 2009.
