Although Arsene Wenger is no longer at Arsenal, it seems that the relationship with Manchester United will continue to be strained.
Perhaps Jose Mourinho hoped that with the Frenchman's departure, there would be no more conflicts between the two clubs. Especially after the Portuguese called Arsene a "specialist in defeats."
The conflict between Unai Emery and the Portuguese began back in the 2010 Spanish championship.
It seems that both managers remember the confrontations. U. Emery's comment calling Mourinho a crybaby was particularly painful.
Before their match, J. Mourinho tried to provoke the London club: "Since they are not playing in the Champions League, they will be fresher. In the Europa League, teams usually field their second choices, so key players are rested. Stronger teams that play in the Champions League often pay for it in December when the schedule is tighter."
