Mourinho didn't know! Nor did he care what thoughts were in the locker room because Real Madrid now had Chen Zhong holding the fort.
He was more concerned about Benzema's performance on the pitch.
A forward like this, though obedient, was not quite to Mourinho's liking; he felt like a domesticated little cat, lacking a bit of wildness and ferocity.
And what he wanted was definitely not a house cat.
This is the complexity of people, wanting someone obedient yet also a bit rebellious.
In these 14 days, Mourinho was not idle either, he turned his attention to Emmanuel Adebayor, who had just joined Manchester City.
If you don't know why Mourinho wanted to bring in Adebayor, then just remember Adebayor's nickname, "Little Magic Beast."
Success at Chelsea for Mourinho was closely linked to Didier Drogba!
After experiencing Didier Drogba, both Chelsea and Mourinho developed a bad habit of liking tall, black-skinned African players.
