AMERICAN HEAT GETS TO THE CLOWN
Jose Mourinho has let the heat get to him in America - he obviously is still not getting enough sleep as his obsession with Rafa Benitez's Liverpool continues.
Today he decided that Liverpool are not genuine title challengers.
"I still believe United and Arsenal will be the biggest threat. They will be the better teams.
"I say that because of the quality of their football, the way they play, the improvements in their squads."
"Liverpool are different. They are very competitive, it's very difficult to beat them," he said.
"If they score a goal before you score it's very difficult to change it because they defend really well with 11 players very, very compact.
"They are tactically very good and they are potentially fighting for the front pack but I still fancy more the way Manchester United and Arsenal play football."

 He's right isn't he? Look at the two finals that we got to that he didn't. We won both of those with tight boring football, one goal deciding each game. I hate supporting Liverpool. Being in love with such a boring team.I wish I was a Chelsea fan............... my arse.

Mourinho is only taking the pressure off the Liverpool players, publicly saying they aren't genuine title challengers. If Mourinho spent a little less time being arrogant about the way his team is set up and the way they play maybe people would like him.

The clown is just using a ploy to wind the club up. I'm sure deep down he admires us.We have been their nemesis recently in big games.It's just sour grapes.

What do you expect? Rafa's been taking sly little digs at Jose for the past year. He should expect some coming the other way from Jose. Typical Scousers - happy to dish it out but you go running to mummy when someone dares to give it back. Matt, New York

What really ought to alarm Jose is that there are any challengers at all. With the chronic imbalance of wealth Chelsea ought to consider no one as rivals. That they protest so much at Liverpool's defensive tactics is akin to the Americans claiming that Kama Rouge faught dirty by using jungle warfare instead of face to face onslaught. Liverpool need to use stealth, particularly with the squad RB inherited, otherwise they, or any other team would be rolled over. Should Chelsea not win the title by more than 10 points Jose can consider himself a failure....as well as a right wing, bible bashing bore. Stephen C, London
