Mourinho found out where the caller was from -- TalkSport -- and then dryly gave the phone to the reporter it belonged to. The MUTV cameras didn't give him a break either, zooming in on him as he apologized profusely.

At the end of it all, Mourinho held a smile for a few seconds, then asked: "What was the question?"
