Jose Mourinho makes case for the defence

Jose Mourinho has retaliated after Arsene Wenger questioned Chelsea’s defensive tactics.

Mourinho’s side lead Arsenal by 10 points and could take a significant step to winning the Premier League with victory at the Emirates Stadium tomorrow.

The Blues boss has deployed a “more strategic, less artistic” approach in recent weeks, including in the 1-0 win at QPR when Cesc Fabregas scored with their only shot on target and last weekend’s defeat of Manchester United, who dominated possession at Stamford Bridge.
