Jose Mourinho has labelled former club Chelsea an embarrassment as he watches Manchester United waltz towards the league title.
Mourinho was speaking ahead of his Inter side’s Champions League visit to Old Trafford, where the Italian champions will hope to capitalise on a 0-0 draw in The San Siro to progress to the quarter finals.
The charismatic Portuguese is adamant that United are not as good as people are making out, despite their seven-point lead in the league, insisting that his team would be above United’s if he was still managing in The Premier League.
Looking at the efforts of Arsenal, Liverpool and former club Chelsea, Mourinho claims it is ‘embarrassing’ that nobody is making a decent effort to stop United’s stroll to the title.
“Yes Manchester United are the best in England but you have to ask how good has The Premier League been since I left?,” the former Chelsea boss stated in The News of the World.
“United have won it with ease since I have gone because no manager has put together a team that can rival them.
“They have a great squad but are their players really that much better than Chelsea’s or Liverpool’s? I don’t think so. So something else must be the problem and somebody has to take responsibility for that.
“Chelsea have had no stability. Arsenal are nowhere and Liverpool threatened but I don’t think anybody really thought they were ever going to win it.
“I would not allow a team of mine to be so far behind. It is embarrassing in early March.”
that's why i had always wanted you to take over liverpool...
