Jose: United just lucky

CHELSEA manager Jose Mourinho claims Manchester United have enjoyed more than their fair share of luck this season.

“This is a season in which United have had no injuries and every player is fine to play,” said the Blues boss, who also referred to Ryan Giggs’ winner in the Champions League last week which French club Lille have appealed against.

“They go to the Champions League and see a disallowed goal for Lille.

“They go to Fulham and it looks like they deserve to lose and they win. They play at Tottenham, it’s 0-0 and Cristiano Ronaldo dives, they get a penalty and win 4-0. It looks like everything is on their side, but that’s football. I didn’t see the Fulham game, but the information I have is it was completely undeserved. It’s a game they could have lost and in the end they win it.

Mourinho also claimed Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was under less pressure than him to win cups.

“Arsenal have great boys. But I wouldn’t be sad if a club gives me three, four, five years and tells me, ‘You don’t need to win. You can lose Premiership after Premiership, and you have three, four, five seasons to build. I wouldn’t be sad.

“Since I arrived at Chelsea, Arsenal lost Premierships, they lost the Charity Shield to us, they lost the Carling Cup to us. I don’t think they are winning a lot. Absolutely brilliant young boys, manager top, team with a great future. But they didn’t win.”
