Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has claimed that he should win an award for his behaviour on the touchline.
The Portuguese coach has clashed with referees, fourth officials, rival managers and even fans over the years, and has been sent to the stands on several occasions during his career.
However, Mourinho insists that he has changed his ways and feels that he is now one of the Premier League's best behaved managers.
"I'm fully committed to win the award this season of the best-behaved manager on the touchline," Mourinho is quoted by BBC Sport as saying ahead of the Sunday meeting with Newcastle United.
"I'm serious - I prepare myself, I'm really happy. I'm not free of losing my temper, my control, in one match. I'm not perfect.
"There are so many awards - performance of the week, manager of the month and this and that - they should give one to the guy that behaves best on the touchline and it should be the fourth official to vote. I'm pretty sure that I would win."
Mourinho has been sent to the stands once this season, during the 1-0 win at Southampton on 23 September.
