First of all, this is not to say that Mourinho shouldn't be our manager because of how he talks to the media.

Could someone tell me how Mourinho was to the media at Real Madrid and Chelsea in terms of leaking stories about transfers, Louis van Gaal doesn't want anything to leak apparently because no Manchester based journalists have gotten anything from their sources since Louis van Gaal took over.

I would like to do my: Louis van Gaal/Jose Mourinho transfer shorlist series again on this subreddit like I did last summer but I want to have enough stories to write about. Last summer, the only way we would know anything about transfers was when it was leaked by someone from the club we were buying from but these stories are also often used for a new contract.

Does Mourinho let Ed Woodward for example brief Mark Ogden and his friends a lot or will we only know about transfers just before they happen?
