    Wenger Embarrassed For Mourinho As Arsenal Progress In FA Cup

    Last week we were treated to another Jose Mourinho special. The Chelsea manager labelled Arsene Wenger - a coach with numerous major trophies under his belt and 17 years experience in charge of one of the country's biggest clubs - a specialist in failure.

    Well, Mourinho was left with egg on his face this weekend as he saw his Chelsea side knocked out of the FA Cup while Arsenal overcame a difficult Liverpool challenge to progress into the quarter finals.

    I for one am glad that the Portuguese boss was made to look a bit of a fool, and I am also glad that Wenger has stuck up for himself after the insult.

    The Frenchman hit back by saying he is embarrassed for Mourinho and that he was sad for Chelsea rather than himself, and I feel it was a dignified response.

    Mourinho has had a huge amount of success as a boss but he has always had money to back him up. While Wenger has become renowned for picking up youngsters and nurturing them into special players and furthering their careers, Mourinho is more of a fan of spending big amounts of money to find success instantly.

    The initial insult was out of line in my eyes and I am glad that it's come back to bite Mourinho.

    mourinho is less than a fool bcos it is said that a fool at fourty is a fool for eternity. He is over 40yre yet not knowing how to control his mouth and very arrogant. Can he dare try what Wenger does with the available resources at his disposal? Can he mention one young talent that he has personally groomed to limelight? Chelsea, Inter and Madrid etc were has he not spent million of pounds to be successful?

    I want anti mourinhos to keep there mouth shot, Most important thing is leaving a legacy and have a physical trophies.
    no one will ask you whom you groomed but where is your boot after the war.
    If you do not have anything to show for then you are more than miserable.
    Wenga have tried we know, but will he retire with CL trophy? that is the most in Europe.
    I mean if you can spend the money and get trophies go ahead.

    It's not for me to judge comments by someone who calls himself prince (that can't even spell "shut"), but Arsene has 3 PL titles, 4 FA Cups and other trophies as well. He has left his mark already, he is just leaving his legacy behind. Can Mourinho say the same?

    morinho is one successful manager i respect,but he has a problem in interpreting proverbial instinct words of wenger.because of his deep low understanding of english ,he turned it upside down;there is a saying;GIVE A HAMMER TO A CHILD,EVERYTHING BECOMES A NAIL.....THATS MOURINHO FOR YOU,
