Chelsea coach makes mockery of rivals, Arsenal, Manchester City, United
He isundefined the English Premier League title with Chelsea, but Jose Mourinho in is usually manner could not pass up on an opportunity to take a swipe at rivals.
The Chelsea manager did just that on the evening of Tuesday, May 26 during the club's Player of the Year awards dinner held at the plush Battersea Revolution.
The Portuguese took to that stage to hit at his rivals with a fictional graphic work on a large screen.
"My players did not get the respect they deserved from day one to the last day," Mourinho started.
"These are words that I really feel, but now I have a fiction story and let's try to enjoy it.' he said before pointing to the large screen to make his points.
He started with a graphic representation relating to Chelsea 1-0 win over Manchester United last month.
"This is a game with two goals, but there is one team that like to play without the ball," Mourinho said.
"That team plays really well and the ball goes and goes and goes and the quality of the ball possession is good, but they don't score. No points.
"They asked the FIFA committee if they can win like this but they're told it's not possible. That the bigger possession is not essential to win matches and they are not champions," Mourinho explained targeting United's large ball possession in the game that Chelsea won.
Next was Manchester City.
"Then, there is another team. Only with one goal," Mourinho said.
"And they score a lot of goals, from players in every position, and they score and they score and they score.
"But they never concede a goal because there's no goal. They speak to and they say they can't be champions because there is only one goal," Mourinho said relating to , now in his element at the £240-a-ticket event, moved on to second-placed Manchester City's defensive record.
Finally, it was Arsenal's turn.
"There is a third team, and the third team wants to play with two goals," he said.
"They were scoring some, they were also conceding some. But they score really beautiful goals and then the bus comes along and they couldn't do it," Mourinho said.
The maverick manager ended with the description of his own team.
"And finally there is a team. They wanted to play with the normal rules and they know that in matches they have to score one more goal than the opponent," he said.
"How can you do this? By scoring lots of goals, by not conceding and scoring one."
