JOSE MOURINHO has taunted arch-rival Rafa Benitez for
failing to win the Premiership. Chelsea boss Mourinho told Rafa it
is time to deliver. He warned: Liverpool are under pressure. After
four seasons with Benitez they want the Premiership. Its a long
time since they won it and they all speak about getting the
Premiership the club, Benitez and the players. I think last
season was frustrating for them as they won
nothing.
Mourinho has warned Benitez he could lose his star players if he
draws another blank. He said: I heard Gerrard, Carragher and Riise
say it has to be this season for them. But they always have a good
group, good players, so I think theyll be better.
Liverpool have not won the league since 1990 and this summer the
club has splashed out more than £26million, double Chelseas
spending, to end that drought. Mourinho added: In other years they
could say Oh, these guys spent a lot of money, they have to win.
This season they dont have that excuse. They have much higher
expectations.
In the past three years only Chelsea and Manchester United have
won, so Liverpool are now under pressure.
