Jose Mourinho: 'Manuel Pellegrini talks about me too much'

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho claims that Manuel Pellegrini has gone back on his word by talking about him too much.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has criticised Manuel Pellegrini for supposedly going back on his word.

The Blues manager claimed that the Chilean coach said that he would not be speaking about his Portuguese counterpart, but Mourinho insists that that hasn't been the case this season.

He told reporters: "The thing that is quite funny is month after month, he kept saying that 'I won't comment on Mourinho' but he's doing it. He's changed.

"He's a fantastic coach, and I respect that a lot, but outside of football he is an engineer by academic trade, but I don't think he's needs a calculator to do the maths [about transfers].

"We sold Juan Mata for £37m and Kevin de Bruyne for £18m and bought Nemanja Matic for £21m and Mohamed Salah for £12m. That's £55m minus £23m [in January], that's £22m."

The Blues are currently top of the Premier League.
