Inter Milan boss
Jose Mourinho is happy to see
former club Chelsea win the
Double.
But Mourinho says their success should not detract from his
team’s achievement in bringing the title back to Stamford Bridge
for the first time in 50 years. Chelsea’s 2010 triumph — with the
lowest points total since 2003 — came against a backdrop of falling
standards at Manchester United,
Arsenal and Liverpool, he says.
“People can write what they want,” said Mourinho to the
Sunday Times. “I’m happy Chelsea did it. I want it very clear I’m happy
they won[the league title]. They did what they did and we did what
we did. They won after four years, we won after 50. They score more
goals, we made more points. They were out in the Champions League
last 16, we were out in the semi-final.
“They won the FA Cup without playing one single big team, we won
the Carling Cup playing Man United in the semi-final and
Liverpool in the final. Their
shirt was blue, our shirt was blue. Different time, different
opponents, success. And for Chelsea this is what matters.”
