Magath not bothered if Mourinho contacts players

BAYERN MUNICH boss Felix Magath has said that he would have no problem with Jose Mourinho making secret contact with his players during tonight’s Champions League clash at Stamford Bridge.

However, he still aimed a light-hearted dig at the Chelsea boss’s two-match European touchline ban by insisting: “As my behaviour is always exemplary, I would never have to worry about such things.”

Magath nevertheless reacted with indifference to Mourinho’s ban, stressing he would have preferred to have the Chelsea boss on the opposite bench at Stamford Bridge and in the Olympic Stadium.
