From Eggs and Omelettes to Cats and DogsMourinho waxes lyrical about Eggs
and Omelettes.In a throwback moment to his days of poetry: waxing lyrical about eggs and
omelettes in the lead up to his self-proclaimed title as the ‘Special One', Mourinho got the
press abuzz this time with his metaphor on cats and dogs:

reported as doubtful for yesterdays match.
Real Madrid's Christmas gift to its fans all over the world: their 8-0 hammering of Levante.
