Jose Mourinho has to be the most quoted manager this season and it was always going to be that way once the Portuguese manager was confirmed as Chelsea boss for the second time. Ever since Mourinho professed himself as the “Special One” during his first news conference when he took over as Chelsea boss for the first time, he has been a journalist’s dream always coming out with interesting sound-bites, insightful analysis plus edgy, provocative comments about his peers and the authorities.

As TEAMtalk report, Mourinho’s methods and particularly his recent words about Arsene Wenger are not to everyone’s tastes and legendary former Arsenal goalkeeper, Bob Wilson, speaking on BBC’s Five Live Sportsweek program has lambasted the Portuguese manager referring to him as a boring bully and called Mourinho “disrespectful” and “despicable” for his “a specialist in failure” comment which the Chelsea boss directed towards Arsene Wenger.

Wilson also suggested Mourinho should act more like the recently passed away England legend Sir Tom Finney rather than persist in criticising Arsene Wenger who Wilson says is “a genuinely good guy and a footballing man”. Jose had made his “a specialist in failure” comment after Wenger said the title was Chelsea’s to lose.

When questioned about his anti-Mourinho tirade, Wilson said: “I think at best it was disrespectful, at worst despicable to be so dismissive of a genuinely good guy and a footballing man I think, whose presence in England in 17-18 years has opened eyes and ears and created wonderfully entertaining sides.

“It’s obviously not the first time Mourinho has singled Arsene out. He called him a voyeur which is a disgusting claim and thankfully on that occasion he – although belatedly – he did apologise.

“I think it’s personal, he is hugely talented, amazing manager Mourinho but I find – at this moment – I find him boring at the moment.

“To call (City boss Manuel) Pellgrini the abuse that he’s called him to do with Arsene, this is a weekend when we honour a gent – Tom Finney, Sir Tom, and I don’t like bullies.”

Well as we know, much of what Jose Mourinho says is part of what he readily admits is his mind games strategy and it is not always going to sit well with everyone but love him or hate him, Mourinho is the best at what he does and there is certainly a method to his madness and we love him even if his remarks are sometimes close to the line.
