José Mourinho’s Benítez barb shows his propensity to overstep the mark | David Hytner | Football | The Guardian
Two polar opposite views on Jose Mourinho’s latest comments. I do agree with parts of each.
The comments about Rafa Benitez’s waistline weren’t the nicest and, as the author in the Guardian stated, entered into dodgy territory with the whole cooking thing but it wasn’t entirely football-related and it’s almost something you expect from Mourinho at this point. He does have a point about Benitez replacing him and “cleaning up his messes” as that was only done at Inter, but still. Doubt that Rafa cares at this point though.
