Mourinho v Mrs Benitez: 'Chelsea boss was rattled by Rafa, now his Mrs has wound him up too!'


Mourinho v Benitez

The new season hasn't even properly begun and already Jose Mourinho is involved in a war of words.
Chelsea's boss has seemingly accused Real Madrid manager Rafael Benitez of being overweight, following comments from Benitez's wife, Montse, that Mourinho leaves his former clubs in a mess.
The Spaniard has now followed Mourinho as a manager at three clubs, with the Real Madrid job joining Chelsea and Inter on their respective CVs.
"We tidy up his messes," said Mrs Benitez, of her husband's habit of managing clubs after Mourinho has left them.
"The lady is a bit confused," Mourinho replied, after Chelsea's International Champions Cup win over Barcelona.
"Her husband went to Chelsea to replace Roberto Di Matteo and he went to Real Madrid and replaced Carlo Ancelotti.
"The only club where her husband replaced me was at Inter Milan, where in six months he destroyed the best team in Europe at the time.
"If she takes care of her husband's diet, she will not have any time to talk about me."

Mourinho and Benitez developed a fierce rivalry a decade ago, during the former's first stint as Chelsea manager, when the latter was in charge of Liverpool.
While Mourinho's Blues were the dominant domestic force, winning two Premier League titles in that period, Benitez's Reds knocked Chelsea out of the Champions League in two semi-finals, as well as an FA Cup last four tie.
