He told reporters: "I have 25 coins, I throw the coins in the air. The ones that stay on the table are the players that play, the ones that go on the floor, go on the bench. I do it just like this. During the week I'm having fun, I go to nightclubs every day in Istanbul. It's simple."

Mourinho's future at the club has come under scrutiny during an often controversial spell in Turkey. The former Chelsea boss was asked about president Ali Koç's comments that he had turned down a huge offer to leave mid-season and answered only: "His words are his words. I have too much respect for our president … I have no comments, I'm just a coach."
