The passions between the most powerful English clubs coaches are boiling - strategist Sir Alex Ferguson expressed his astonishment in the media that his colleague Jose Mourinho is not punished for his constant controversial comments.
Lately, the Portuguese has repeatedly noted that in the fight for the national championship title "Man Utd" has an advantage due to favorable referee decisions.
To this, A. Ferguson retorted: "J. Mourinho seems to be on a kind of crusade. I am surprised that no action is being taken.
"Everything is calculated. We have four games left and if a penalty is awarded against us, it will win the war. This is not fair.
"Lately, there is no shortage of empty but loud phrases, and this is not good for football."
During the past weekend, the manager of "Chelsea" ironically stated that a new rule has emerged in football, declaring that a penalty against "Man Utd" cannot be awarded, and if a "Chelsea" player falls in the penalty area, no one also gives the current champions the opportunity to score from a standard situation.
J. Mourinho also drew attention to the referees' decisions in Manchester team matches with "Sheffield United" and "Middlesbrough", in which the 'Red Devils' managed to avoid potentially very painful decisions in controversial episodes.
"Man Utd" star Cristiano Ronaldo did not stay out of the argument either, stating that with such words the opponent's coach simply does not want to acknowledge his failures.
It is not surprising that after this opinion was made public, J. Mourinho did not remain silent: "If C. Ronaldo says that false penalties were not awarded against "Man Utd", then he is lying."
"Everyone has the right to comment and express their opinion. This does not mean that you have to say 'they are liars'," - Ferguson again expressed his displeasure.
"The worst thing is that such talks about penalties create unnecessary pressure on referees.
And does J. Mourinho remember how Paulo Scholes's goal was not counted due to an alleged offside when we played against his "Porto" in the Champions League? We didn't like it and we complained, but we didn't rush into such a war."
Interestingly, these clubs still have more than one match against each other this season. On May 9, the teams will face each other in an important "Premier" League match in London, and just 10 days later they will have a match in the FA Cup final.
Furthermore, both "Man Utd" and "Chelsea" continue their fight in the UEFA Champions League semi-final and both have a chance to face each other in the final, which will take place in Athens, respectively against "Milan" and "Liverpool".
