"As far as I know, there is no UEFA rule preventing him from insinuating these opinions".
Well, obviously not. It's a press conference. Unless he accuses the other team of cheating, which by anyone's standards would be a little ridiculous before the game has been played, then he's perfectly within his rights to express his opinion.
And his pressure is not on Gudjohsen, who (like most players) won't mind too much how he wins the tie. The pressure is on the referee to be aware of any theatrics. With Barcelona's pace and passing, added to the fact that they're at home, they're the ones that will probably be flying into the air with faces contorted in agony. Mourinho wants to get his comments in early so he can say "told you so" at the end of the tie.

Mourinho's words are well chosen. You have to realise that a referee like Anders Frisk never officiated at the Nou Camp without sending a player off from the opposition.
That's right - on every single occasion without any exception whatsoever.

If that doesn't make you think, nothing will.
