Jose Mourinho is fighting against the system in Turkish football - he says this is his mission since he arrived at Fenerbahce this summer.

For the umpteenth time, the Portuguese had a show at the press conference, after his team's victory over Hatajspor in the Turkish Super League. It was 2:1...

"And we could have scored six or seven goals. It is very strange that this match ended with a score of 2:1," said Mourinho and continued:

"We know how poisoned the league we play in is. They know how to play against us. There should have been five red cards. And they know it, and we know it."

Leader Galatasaray has eight points more than Fenerbahce.

"Why are you hiding the truth in the media? What are you people in this country so afraid of? I know you are journalists, I could have been a journalist too, but what are you afraid of? Is the difference in points in the table because of the quality of the game? The only thing what I can say is that after 25 years as a coach and 35 in football, 10 as an assistant, I've never seen anything like this. I don't think this is a situation where a club can destroy such a strong system with its fight," he thundered Special.

He also learned, as he says, a new word:

"Everyone said "scandal, scandal, scandal". I learned a new word - scandal. In this country, everyone loves that word, even the winners love it. And that's the worst of all. Because they want to win at all costs," he concluded is Mourinho.
