"That would have been easier to start the season, but it would have been misleading. That's not the direction that I want to go." And Mourinho urged those concerned by Sunday's draw that there is still a long way to go in the season.

"Early matches are always very strange," he said. "Bayern lost this weekend, Inter drew, Juventus lost, Manchester United drew with Fulham.
Good omen "I'll say one thing for the superstitious - my seasons at Porto and Inter always started with a draw. In Porto, we then won four titles and at Inter we got two in the first season and three in the second. "I do not see a draw as a drama on the first day. Winning this game was not a pre -requisite for a great season. But I'm not going to lie, obviously I wanted to win my first game." Mesut Ozil and Sami Khedira were both lured to the Bernabeu after impressive performances for Germany at this summer's World Cup and both featured from the bench at Mallorca. "It's not easy for the Germans," added Mourinho. "They do not speak a word of Spanish. They can just say 'buenos dias' and 'hola'. "The work we do is intense and luckily I have an assistant who speaks some German and has given them my instructions. "But it's not easy for my message to get across as I wish. In addition, the social life of the group is still zero for them. Patience. Give them time."
