Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has said he is at the club during a time when it is "more difficult to make history."
Mourinho has dismissed speculation that he could quit Old Trafford in the summer as "garbage news."
His denial came after reports that he could resign at the end of the season after falling well behind Manchester City in the Premier League title race and becoming frustrated at a lack of investment in his squad.
And as he prepared United to take on Derby County in the FA Cup this weekend, he said: "Everybody knows that in Italy, I am Inter, Inter, Inter. In Spain, I am Real Madrid, Real Madrid, Real Madrid.
"Everybody knows this kind of emotional connection that I keep with the clubs, and that's the way I'm doing it.
"The difference between Chelsea and United is that I really belong to Chelsea's history because I won three Premier Leagues, I won cups, lots of things there -- the club won their first Premier League in 2004.
"So I have a history there and here my history is the history of somebody who works hard every day.
"We [United] won the only competition the club never won, but everybody knows the Europa League is not the El Dorado of football, and I come in a moment where it is more difficult to make history."
Mourinho also said he aimed to create the conditions for his successor to win the title even if he failed to do so during his own spell in charge.
He said: "If a manager leaves a club one day even without big success, but creates conditions for the next one to come in and have success, that's also a very important part of this job.
"So when I work in this club I'm not just working for myself, I try to work also for the future of the club."
