MOURINHO ATTACKS WENGER AGAIN

felirox SG

Jose Mourinho has taken an almighty pop at Arsene Wenger, claiming the Frenchman has it easy at Arsenal.

"Arsenal is a unique team," Mourinho told Gazzetta Della Sport. "Their coach hasn't won anything for years and is still an idol. There is no pressure at Arsenal. But do not say he is growing young players into talents. What he does is take young players who are jewels and polishes them. It's different. He has time to work in a serene atmosphere and get results."

While the accusation is not new, the previous diatribes occurred when the two mangers were in direct competition and thus interpreted as a 'mindgame' ploy by the Special One to ratchet up pressure on Wenger. That Mourinho felt compelled to put Wenger back in his sights even at a time when he is out of the game indicates that the antipathy between the pair - who fell out spectacularly three years ago when the then Chelski boss branded Wenger a "voyeur" - still lingers. Either that or Mourinho genuinely believes that the Arsenal manager lives in a comfort zone at the Emirates Stadium.

Arsene's response to Mourinho's "winning is everything":

"I know people who have won trophies and I don't rate them. I can give you examples of people who have won 100-metre medals in the Olympic Games and they have cheated. I know people in football who have done exactly the same."

"To win trophies important, but that is not the only thing that is important in sport - moral integrity is, too."

"Winning cannot be everything. To destroy people can never be everything. Why should you always have to kill people to exist?"

Asked about Mourinho's comments, he said: "I let other people talk. I will talk for myself. I try to do my job as well as I can. If it's not good enough, people will let me know."

aiyo last time arsenal consists of oldies like adam, keown, dixon, winterburn lor....its wenger choice to constantly groom youngsters into the team and sell the players once they reach close to 30. That's why you see players like overmars, petit, vieira, henry, wiltord, lauren, ashley cole once they reach certain ages cos wenger believes in fast players.
