Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has taken a jibe at Arsene Wenger ahead of his side's clash against Arsenal in the Community Shield.
The Frenchman has failed to beat Mourinho in their last 13 meetings, and the Portuguese has admitted that he would question himself if he had such a poor record against a particular opponent.
"I think I lost twice against Tony Pulis," Mourinho told reporters. "I lost against Crystal Palace and against West Brom. One game each. I think I would ask myself why.
When asked what he would do to amend his record, he added: "I would to try to answer but not because of a mental block but because I would want to try to find solutions to help my team to do it. This yes, try to find different way, try to find the reasons why it goes all the time against my team, but just that.
"I don't think about what happened before, I just think about the game. So, for me, six, seven, eight or nine matches without losing makes no difference and I don't think affects this game. And the next one for me there is no relation between one game and what happened before."
Chelsea and Arsenal face off in the Community Shield on Sunday at Wembley.
