They might no longer be managing in the same country, but Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho and Bayern Munich tactician Pep Guardiola are still squabbling in the press.
The two men have been at odds for what seems like an eternity, with things really reaching a boiling point when they were managing bitter La Liga rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona.
And now, the two are mixing it up again.
The reason? Apparently a difference of opinion on grass length. The duo both attended a recent coaches' summit in Switzerland and the former Blaugrana coach believes that it should be no longer than 1.5cm (as opposed to the current 3 cm) and the field needs to be watered prior to every match.
Mourinho and Guardiola have been at odds for years, and looks like the feud is still rumbling on
With Pep believing that the shorter grass would make the game more beautiful, Mou, of course, couldn't help but to disagree:
"Everyone has his style of play, which should be respected. Football can be spectacular in several ways."
Guardiola hit back, stating, "The beauty of football depends on the coach. It seems to me that Mourinho prefers the result to the spectacle."
Certainly, there is nothing wrong with a difference in opinions, but what came next from Mourinho was just, well, typically Mourinho.
According to Spanish publication El Confidential, the Portuguese tactician made this snarky observation about the Spaniard's appearance:
"When you enjoy what you do, you don't lose your hair, and Guardiola is bald. [So, obviously] he doesn't enjoy football."
