“Very well dealt with Jose” Mourinho’s latest comments shows his class

Jose Mourinho has held his pre match press conference today and took time out to pay tribute to Prince Phillip who died today aged 99.

It was a classy move from a man that is not British and comes from a country that no longer has a royal family.

As the press conference got underway Mourinho stopped answering questions to pay his condolences to the Queen and royal family.

The Portuguese comments have been widely reported and sadly, with it being Twitter, there was a lot of vile abuse to navigate but there were also a load that acknowledged the classy act from the Tottenham manager.

Whether you are a monarchist or not, it was not really about them but more about a man paying respect and that shows the sort of person that Mourinho is.

Here are just some of the responses to what Mourinho said spread across various Twitter accounts that reported his words.
