Jose Mourinho: 'Paul Lambert complains at every decision'

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho says that Paul Lambert remains him of a younger version of himself.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has claimed that his Aston Villa counterpart Paul Lambert complains about refereeing decisions excessively.

Speaking after his side's 2-1 win over Villa in the Premier League, the Portuguese coach rejected Lambert's claims that Branislav Ivanovic should have been dismissed for a foul on Christian Benteke.

However, the Blues boss admitted that Lambert reminds him of a younger version of himself.

"Paul Lambert reminds me of me at his age. Now I complain with some decisions, at his age I complained at every decision," BBC Sport quotes him as saying.

"Paul complains at every decision, I was the same. Benteke and Ivanovic, they are two giants, it was 50/50."

Benteke cancelled out an early own goal from Antonio Luna, but Ivanovic headed home a Chelsea winner in the 73rd minute.
