Khedira enjoying his time under Real Madrid coach Mourinho

Real Madrid midfielder Sami Khedira admits he enjoys playing for coach Jose Mourinho.

The Germany international says Mourinho is the ultimate man-manager.

"He is a hugely respectful person who will do anything for success. He lives for football and thinks about the team and how he can improve individual players 24 hours a day," he told Fifa.com.

"Despite the incredible pressure he's under from all directions, he's always very pleasant to all of us. He talks to us a lot, not only about football, but also about private things."

"I have never experienced anything quite like it at this level. He knows exactly how to deal with his players - that's why he's so popular."
