adminLONDON. – Manuel Pellegrini has continued his running feud with Jose Mourinho by criticising his rival’s approach to winning. Pellegrini believes Mourinho wanted personal credit and attention for winning the English Premier League title — something the Chilean insists he did not do the previous year when City won the same competition.
The City boss complained about Chelsea’s defensive tactics when they faced his side last season – but the pair’s war of words goes back to 2010 when Mourinho succeeded Pellegrini as Real Madrid boss. They went toe-to-toe for the first time in March 2011 when Real Madrid beat Malaga 7-0.
“When he wins, Mourinho wants to take credit for everything,” Pellgrini told Chile’s El Mercurio newspaper.
“I never do that. When I won the Premier League, I didn’t say a word.
“I don’t have any problem with Mourinho. He’s not my enemy and there isn’t any conflict – but I differ from him on all fronts. I have no interest in analysing him as a person.” – Sky Sports.
