May 7, 23:00 pm, the 36th round of the focus of the war, Manchester United finally ushered in a familiar opponent Arsenal before the two teams nearly 6 times to meet. The two sides each got 2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, a tie. And this game, Zaca broke the goal Welbeck, Arsenal 2:0 victory over Manchester United.
Arsenal beat Manchester United 2:0, ending United's 25-round unbeaten run this season, while it was also Arsene Wenger's first win over Jose Mourinho in the Premier League.
But from both sides of the mouth on the exchange of words, Wenger's performance is much better than in the green field, let's go back to ten years ago, to see how the then new arrival Mourinho "bar" the mild-mannered professor.
"I can't see Chelsea having any more homegrown players in their squad than we do, what homegrown players have they produced? There's only one Terry." --In 2005, Wenger was asked about Arsenal's starting eleven all foreign players when the answer. In August 2005, at the start of the new season, Arsene Wenger gave a "pointer" to Chelsea's tactics: "I know we all live in a world where there is only a difference between the winners and the losers, but as soon as sport encourages teams to go against the spirit of the sport, the sport is in jeopardy. "
Mourinho was indifferent: "Wenger seems to have some problems with us, I think he's what you English call a voyeur. He likes to spy on people, the kind of person who takes a telescope in his own house to spy on what the neighbors are doing. It's a sickness that has to be cured or he always likes to talk about Chelsea." Wenger's response was also insulting "He [Mourinho] is out of order, separate from the facts and so rude. Once you let those stupid guys succeed, they will be even more stupid, they are not going to become intelligent." Mourinho then responded, "At Stamford Bridge we have collected an archive of what Comrade Wenger has said about Chelsea FC over the last 12 months, it's not a five-page document, it's a full 120-page archive."
When Mourinho left the club in September 2007, the two sides had put their on-field hostility on hold, but the mouths had still been exchanging fire across the room. "The English like to mess with the numbers," Mou said in '08. "Do they know that Wenger's win rate in the Premier League is only 50 percent?" When Mourinho was in charge of Real Madrid, there was "card-gate" (Alonso and Ramos were suspended for the second leg after tactical yellows against Galatasaray to give them more time off). Wenger jumped in and said: what you saw on TV (the sin-badge incident) is the best proof of that: it's something that can't be condoned any more. In fact, it's really bad. It's a shame to have something like this at a big club."
Such comments will only serve to escalate the conflict and get Mourinho fired up: "More than Real Madrid, Mr. Wenger should talk about his Arsenal and explain why his team lost 0-2 to a team making its Champions League debut. Now those once young talents are getting old, Sagna, Clichy, Walcott, Fabregas, Song, Nasri, Van Persie and Arshavin aren't kids, they are all top players now."
After Mourinho's "second go-around" at Chelsea, Arsene Wenger was the first to "get on" Mourinho's bad side again. This time, the focus is Chelsea in the end of the two rounds of meetings with Manchester United, only to sell Mata to the opponent, but other major rivals have to face off with Manchester United. "Chelsea could have sold Mata to United last week, but preferred to wait until both sides had finished duking it out. I don't think you do that if you want to weigh everyone up and respect everyone's fairness." Then MU hit back, "It's normal for Wenger to complain because he's always complaining about all sorts of things. Normally he should have sniggered when he saw Chelsea sell Mata, but his nature is showing again. I guess the most unfair thing would be that his teams always play in the best schedule."
In February 2014, Wenger criticized Mourinho for being "afraid of failure" when Chelsea were leading the way with just a one-point lead over Arsenal, only to set off another backlash from Mourinho. "I would be afraid of failure?" Mu threw out another memorable quote. "He's the expert on failure, I'm not. If anyone thinks he's right and I'm afraid of failure, it's because I haven't failed as many times as he has. eight years without a title, that's failure."
After 10 years of verbal sparring, the two finally had to come to a "physical contact". At Stamford Bridge in October 2014, Wenger and Mourinho had a verbal altercation over a controversial penalty, which culminated in a shove.
Afterwards, Wenger said, "I don't think I should have overreacted, that's not the way you should behave on the pitch. But didn't he piss me off? It's true I felt pissed off, but I didn't run into their territory and make a scene." Mourinho was asked if he had seen Wenger turn into a different Mourinho by being pushed and shoved. "The man" replied, "Has it changed? If he was me, he would have been suspended!"
The ultimate ultimate question comes down to which one of them actually fired the first shot?
