Soccer Extreme : Dutch playmaker Wesley Sneijder has amazingly claimed that he is "ready to kill and die" for ex Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho.Despite Mourinho's absolutely embarrassing 5-0 crushing at the hands of arch-rivals Barcelona which marked his maiden defeat as Real gaffer, Inter schemer Sneijder holds the Portuguese tactician in the highest regard.
"Once Mourinho said 'Wesley go and take a break with your family, you seem tired'," Sneijder told France Football.
"Many other coaches just used to speak of training, but he sent me to the beach. And so I went to Ibiza for a few days. When I came back I was ready to kill and die for him.
"The most important thing was not training, but the recovery. When we used to play only on Sundays we used to work like crazy during the week."
Under Mourinho, the Dutch midfielder played a pivotal role as the chief creative architect, leading Inter to their glorious Serie A, Coppa Italia and Champions League treble last season. (espn)
