Mourinho delighted with team spirit inside Real Madrid squad

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho is delighted with the team spirit inside his squad.

Mourinho feels they're now growing together as a unit.

"It helps that people know each other and get on well together," he explained to the club's official website.

"The players might have been together for a long time, but if there's no empathy and pleasure in working together, you have a bigger problem than when you're putting together a group."

"We all get along well, we know each other well on a personal level, and in terms of football. They know the way I work and my ideas, and I know them."

"We're excited about our third year after two in which we've gone from strength to strength."
