The former Chelsea manager, who built a great rivalry against Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger, wasn’t impressed by the Gunners’ 6-0 whipping of Blackpool last weekend. Jose Mourinho sees Arsenal as ‘Premier League write-offs’ and cup pretenders instead of genuine contenders. He told English media The Sun:

“Year after year, it looks like [they will win the EPL], but no… it looks like, but no. Always the same type of comments, ‘It’s a young team’, ‘it will be next season, it will be next season’.

“It’s fantastic for Arsene that he signed a new contract. I remember when we [Chelsea] played them in a Carling Cup semi-final, and they played the team of young boys.

 

"The team of young boys is not the team of young boys now. They are a team of 25, 26, 27-year-olds. So Fabregas, Walcott, Clichy, Song, and Sagna aren’t kids. They are a team old enough to win things.”

Predicting over the race for the 2010/2011 English Premier League title, Jose Mourinho said as he wrote off Arsenal’s challenge:

“I think it will again be Manchester United, Chelsea, and of course, Man City because they have a great squad. I believe Chelsea, United, and City… that it is for the title.”

Beating Blackburn Rovers will help Arsenal prove Jose Mourinho wrong with an early response to his angering comments.
