Chelsea football manager Jose Mourinho has revealed that he talks to God every day, but never about football and never discusses the game with his wife. The father-of-two said that he and his family 'know about poverty' and have been privileged to have worked with the Word Food Programme as an ambassador against hunger. The 52-year-old football manager said that he tries his best to separate his professional and his family life. Speaking to the Daily Telegraph, Mourinho admitted that he has a strong faith in God. 'I believe totally, clearly. Every day I pray; every day I speak with Him. I don’t go to the church every day, not even every week. I go when I feel I need to. And when I’m in Portugal, I always go.' The former Real Madrid manager said he only prays for things in is personal life, never about Chelsea. 'I can say the reality is I never go to the church to speak with Him about football. Never!' Despite his intensely arrogant persona on the sideline, Mourinho claims that he is a good person. 'I think so. I try to be. And I think I am. I don’t have problems with family or friends. I am a good family person; I am a good friend. I try to support people that I don’t even know. 'Do I make mistakes? Yes. My professional area is not only very competitive – it is competitive and emotional and [you must] push people for a certain kind of behaviour – absolutely, yes. But the professional life is only part of a person; a person is much more than that.' Chelsea are currently top of the league and are playing struggling QPR this weekend. Earlier this season, Mourinho was fined £25,000 by football authorities for claiming there was a 'campaign' against Chelsea after Cesc Fabregas was booked for diving against Southampton.
