The best 16 beefs between Mourinho and Wenger.

16. Wenger on Mourinho (February, 2005)
​”Take what Arsenal and Chelsea have won in the past eight years. I go with reality, with the football we play and the challenge we have ahead.”

“I don’t see especially that Chelsea play more English players than we do. Who have they produced, homegrown? Just one, John Terry.”

15. Wenger on Mourinho (August, 2005)
​”I know we live in a world where we have only winners and losers, but once a sport encourages teams who refuse to take the initiative, the sport is in danger.”

14. Mourinho on Wenger (October, 2005)

“Wenger has a real problem with us and I think he is what you call in England a voyeur. He is someone who likes to watch other people. There are some guys who, when they are at home, have a big telescope to see what happens in other families. Wenger must be one of them – it is a sickness. He speaks, speaks, speaks about Chelsea.”

13. Wenger quickly responded to Mourinho(November 2005)
​”He’s out of order, disconnected with reality and disrespectful. When you give success to stupid people, it makes them more stupid sometimes.’’

12. Mourinho again on Wenger (2005)
“At Stamford Bridge, we have a file of quotes from Mr Wenger about Chelsea football club in the last 12 months – it is not a file of five pages. It is a file of 120 pages so we have a very strong reaction. My objective is that it is enough.”

11. Mourinho again on Wenger(April, 2007)
“If you would like to compare every manager you give each one the same amount of resources and say: ‘you have that for five years’. After five years you see who has done the most.”

10. Wenger Slammed Mourinho ( November, 2010)
When he was at Real Madrid,  Mourinho allegedly instructed his players  Xabi Alonso and Sergio Ramos  to get yellow cards for tactical reasons against Galatasaray in Champions League.

“When you see how it looks on television it is the best demonstration to think: ‘Never do that again’. It looks, frankly, horrible. It’s a pity to see that from a big club.”

9. Mourinho bite back at Wenger (November, 2010)
“Instead of speaking about Real Madrid, Mr Wenger should speak about Arsenal and explain how he lost 2-0 against a team in the Champions League for the first time. The history about the young kids is getting old now. Sagna, Clichy, Walcott, Fabregas, Song, Nasri, Van Persie, Arshavin are not kids. They are all top players.”

8. Wenger on Mourinho’s decision to sell Juan Mata to Manchester United(January 2014)
“Chelsea have already played twice against Man United, they could have sold him last week. I think if you want to respect the fairness for everybody, this should not happen.”

7. Mourinho hit back a week later
“Wenger complaining is normal because he always does. Normally he should be happy that Chelsea sold a player like Juan Mata, but this is a little bit his nature. I think what is not fair is that his team always has the best days to play.”

6. Wenger on Mourinho’s attempts to rule out Chelsea’s title chances(February 2014)
“It is fear to fail. Only Chelsea can lose it because they are in front. If you’re not in the race you cannot lose it, if you declare yourself not in the race you cannot lose it, simple as that. Our job is to be ambitious and to try to win”

5. Mourinho got a memorable response for Wenger

“Am I afraid of failure? He is a specialist in failure. I’m not. So if one supposes he’s right and I’m afraid of failure, it’s because I don’t fail many times. So maybe he’s right. I’m not used to failing. But the reality is he’s a specialist because, eight years without a piece of silverware, that’s failure.”

4. Wenger encouraged himself
“I do not want to go into that silly, disrespectful remark. The only thing I know is it’s more embarrassing for Chelsea than for me. I’m embarrassed for him, honestly”

“I do so many wrong things in football. But not this time because this time I was just in my technical area and it was not my problem. Game over. Story over”

3. Wenger on ‘confrontation’ with Mourinho (October 2014)

“What is to regret after that? I wanted to go from A to B and somebody confronted me without any sign of welcome. B was get to Sanchez to see if he was injured. Was it a push? A little one. You can see when I really try to push”

2. Mourinho again taunted Wenger after “boring, boring Chelsea” chant from the Arsenal fans.(April 2015)
“You know, boring I think is 10 years without a title. That’s very boring. You support the club and you’re waiting, waiting, waiting for so many years without a Premier League title, so that’s very boring. But maybe they aren’t singing to us.”

1. Jose Mourinho attacks Arsenal’s Arsene Wenger again when he was asked about the pressure on Newcastle boss Steve McClaren ( Sep. 2015)

“In this country only one manager is not under pressure, every other manager is under pressure – [Manuel] Pellegrini, Brendan [Rodgers], Steve McClaren,” Mourinho told reporters.

“We cannot lose matches, we cannot be below expectations. I have sympathy for all of them and they have sympathy for me because it is a difficult job.

“There is one for some reason outside that list but good for him. He can speak about the referees before the game, after the game, can push people in the technical area, can cry in the morning, cry in the afternoon and nothing happens. Can not achieve, keep the job, still the king – it’s a privilege.”
