Gullit warns
Mourinho: Chelsea fans won't put up with you moaning after £200M
spree
CHELSEA legend Ruud Gullit has told Jose Mourinho to stop moaning
about Chelsea's injury crisis - because it does not wash after
spending £200million.
Former Blues manager Gullit said he found Mourinho's whingeing
about skipper John Terry's absence "curious'' when he had presided
over the richest transfer budget in Europe.
Special One Mourinho is at loggerheads with Chelsea owner Roman
Abramovich over his refusal to fund a £3million move for Bolton
defender Tal Ben Haim and £30m flop Andriy Shevchenko.
Dutch master Gullit is a fan of Mourinho as a coach but, on the eve
of tonight's Carling Cup semi-final against Wycombe, he warned:
"When you are in charge of such a high budget, I'm concerned that
he keeps talking about missing this player or that player.
"If you have one of the highest transfer and wage bills in Europe,
there should be enough quality within the squad to fill any gaps
and I find it curious that he keeps mentioning John Terry being
injured.
"From a punter's perspective it doesn't look good when you complain
about financial restriction if you have spent almost £200m on
players.''
