AVB should have had it out with me — Jose

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho believes when the two parties have an issue, they should work to resolve it between themselves.

Mourinho today crosses swords for the first time with Andre Villas-Boas — once his protege, now his rival after the breakdown of a relationship.

Mourinho refused to discuss the relationship with his fellow Portuguese on the eve of the White Hart Lane clash, a day after Villas-Boas openly discussed it, although without going into full detail of the circumstances of the fallout.
