Mourinho won’t be drawn into mind games

CHELSEA manager Jose Mourinho is determined not to get involved in a war of words with Arsene Wenger before the title contenders meet at Highbury tomorrow.

The hype surrounding the biggest game of the season so far has already begun in earnest but Mourinho has nothing but praise for his north London counterpart - labelling him ‘one of the best managers in the world’.

Indeed, he even claimed that without Wenger’s arrival at Arsenal, he may not have got the chance to weave his own brand of managerial magic at Stamford Bridge.
