Manchester United Jose Mourinho makes bad attempt to end the feud with Chelsea boss Antonio Conte, as he claims Conte is “acting like a victim”.
The former Chelsea manager began the feud later condemned by almost all respected individuals in the game, after he claimed he was not going to act like a clown on the touchlines, to show his passion remains in football.
The Italian responded, by referring to Mourinho has suffering from ‘dementia’ as he reminded the Portuguese of his younger days, strolling the touchlines in his sides’ vital wins. Mourinho’s reponse to Conte’s attack was considered very unfortunate by pundits and critics alike, after he reminded Conte of the match fixing scandal he was involved in, in Italy, saying he will never be involved in a scandal like that.
Conte then called Mourinho a ‘little man’ walking that path and subsequently decided to stop the feud, although stressing he will never forget the words Mourinho used in the infamous verbal attack.
The Man United manager, now says, Conte is playing the victim in a feud the Italian started, although he hints a stop to feud.
“I don’t enjoy (them). When I start (them) I take the responsibilities of that and I’ve started (them) many times. When I don’t start it’s quite funny for me to see other people on the other side acting like victims when they’re not the victims.
But, really, I don’t enjoy. That’s why for me (the row with Conte) is over.”
