The Chelsea manager's conduct has been under the
microscope following the Eva Carneiro saga but insists he will remain
silent on the matter despite being cleared by the FA
The Portuguese has been criticised buy a number of high-profile figures over the manner in which Dr Carneiro was treated after she attended to Eden Hazard during the club's 2-2 draw with Swansea on August 9, ultimately leading to her departing the Premier League champions.
Despite this, the ex-Real Madrid boss refuses to be drawn on the subject.
"For the past two months I didn't open my mouth and I'm going to keep it like this," Mourinho told the media.
"One day I will speak but I will choose a day. I read and I listen and I watch but I am quiet. My time to speak will arrive when I decide."
Earlier this week FA chairman Greg Dyke criticised Mourinho, insisting the Chelsea manager should've apologised to Carneiro, despite Mourinho having been cleared of any wrongdoing by the governing body.
"I don't think Mr Mourinho comes well out of the whole saga - he clearly made a mistake in the heat of a game, and should have said so and apologised," Dyke wrote in a letter to FA Council members
"Instead he has said very little and Miss Carneiro has lost her job.
"Our regulatory team have investigated this and whilst Mr Mourinho has breached no rules, it was clearly a failure of his personal judgement and public behaviour."
