Mourinho sends powerful message to his old rival WengerFriday, April 20th 2018 at 19:06 GMT +3 | Football By Reuters:When Mourinho & Wenger did fight on the touchlineJose Mourinho once called Arsene Wenger a 'specialist in failure' but on Friday, after the Arsenal manager announced he was stepping down at the end of the season, there was only respect. "In the end, probably the ones that respect each other more are the ones that have the problems," added the Portuguese. Mourinho's rivalry with Wenger dates from the younger manager's arrival at Chelsea as a self-proclaimed 'Special One' in 2004. On Friday, Mourinho said he hoped Wenger did not retire from football. Mourinho, a Premier League title winner with Chelsea, recognised what Wenger had achieved.
