This time, not attending the press conference is definitely not Mourinho's way of opposing the club or Florentino; instead, he's adopting a low-key approach, a decision that clearly has the club's support as well.
In Italy, Mourinho had also used a "news blackout" strategy. For example, after the match between Inter and Sampdoria, he refused to attend the press conference, but that was because he was dissatisfied with the referee.
What he's doing now is actually the right choice.
Ever since Mourinho showed a piece of paper listing 13 referee errors at a post-match press conference for Real Madrid against Sevilla.
The discussions about Real Madrid and Mourinho have never stopped.
Even though Real Madrid's side believes the referee's misjudgments were blatant, not everyone agrees.
Valencia's coach Emery seized the opportunity for a minor retaliation against Mourinho, calling this Portuguese a "crybaby."
