Sunderland boss Alladyce is set to be confirmed as Roy Hodgson's successor, something Mourinho says is the correct decision.

Well, it is your country and I think you are a complicated country for the person that gets the job.

I think he's the right person for that, yes. I think he is a good choice but I think he needs support and I think you can do better in respect to that because my experience in your country shows that me you, (the) football world, could do a bit better.

I think Sam never had the big chance at the highest level - lots of experiences in the Premier League but never that big one.

And now he has the big one, so I think he is more than ready. I think he is a good motivator, I think he can create a good team spirit with his player and I wish him the best.

From my side, not just as a friend but my side as Man United manager, the only thing I can promise is that I am going to try to support him the best way, prepare the players for him, try to have the English players always available in a good condition to help him.

I hope you can do the same because it's your time. In Portugal we were waiting and waiting and finally we got it. I think it is time for you because '66 (when England won their one and only major international trophy) was a long time ago, so good luck Big Sam.

– Jose Mourinho
