 I don't know why everyone is so angry about this. For me, it just enhances the pleasure of winning this championship. The bitterer they get, the happier I am. |

Those quotes say a lot.
Mourinho was supposed to be seriously arrogant, and he was, but he could still respect Fergie and recognise when a team other than his totally deserve to win the league. Grant was so close to winning the league with Chelsea, it must have really hurt to lose out, but he still congratulated. Wenger has really been a major rival to Fergie for over a decade now, and there have been lots of fallings out and tense moments over the years, but there is still a respect between the two managers and Wenger still recognises just how great a manager Fergie is. Benitez shows little respect or class. Instead of biting the bullet, stowing some of his stupid pride and acting like a big man (not in the John Terry sense, the real sense), he acts like a clown, making ludricrous statements about corruption and cheating, disrespecting a manager than outclasses him in every sense and refuses to see that maybe, just maybe, another team might just be above his team because they are better. Not because of referees or money, but because they have a better squad and a more intelligent manager. Show some respect to a legendary manager, Benitez. That's something that you'll never be. |

That is a quality post. Mourinho is one of the most arrogant managers ive ever seen but Benitez shows even less class than him. His lack of grace is humiliating.

He really is playing the corruption card over and over again. It's a terrible accusation to make, and it's ridiculous that he's allowed to keep doing it without as much as a warning.

If you think back really hard you'll remember that Jose's 'and all the people who helped them be champions' was a thinly veiled reference to a conspiracy on the part of the FA and the referees etc.
