Jan 9 (Reuters) - Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho is looking forward to returning to England to watch Champions League last-16 opponents Manchester United play his former club Chelsea on Sunday.

"I must study them deeply. I am going to see them on Sunday because it is a good occasion to see them in a stadium, which gives a better all-round picture than on TV," the Portuguese told reporters.

"I've not gone back there (since leaving Chelsea), not even to go shopping or see my house. I will feel the atmosphere again at the game, it will be emotional."
