Speaking to British journal Nature, Mourinho was gave his opinion on why the English top flight is the best.
"I was able to go to Italy and even Spain, but the Premier League is special."
Here they want all clubs to be competitive, not like in other countries where the big clubs leave the others well behind."
Although he articulated that winning every game in England is "a bit stupid, impossible," Mourinho gave his players a coded warning as to what he expects by suggesting "It's a good starting point."
