Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is hoping to avoid the spotlight next season, after his off-field antics came under close scrutiny last term.
The Portuguese is determined that the focus for the Blues should be on regaining the Premier League title, which they won in both of his first two seasons in charge at Stamford Bridge.
Mourinho told The Sun: "I want to be more mellow this year. I am what I am but, at the same time, people use my personality to create something that is not true.
"It is normal if I am emotional or if I react to something that is not fair, but people have an image of me that's incorrect and now I want it to be different.
"This is the first time I have started a fourth season with the same club and I feel great. I am happy with what we've done.
"I am happy with the relationship I have with my players and with the people who work with me. It's the best place to work, so I am happy to be part of the Chelsea future. I didn't want to move.
"I think I did a good job at Chelsea for three years, but I want to do more."
