Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho puts case forward for British managers to coach elite clubs

Jose Mourinho is bemused by British managers constantly being overlooked for top jobs in England.

Mourinho has always revered Pulis and cannot understand why there is no space for homegrown bosses at the division's elite clubs.
