Jose Mourinho has fired shots at Arsene Wenger after the Frenchman warned that the Red Devils are in the danger of falling out as front runners in the title race.
Speaking at his press conference, Wenger said about United title chances: ‘But I think as long as there is not nine points difference between them then the teams are in the race.
‘Over 10 points difference after a third of the season and you can say its too many points.’
Mourinho has now hit back at his arch rival: “When I won the last title 18 years ago – sorry 18 months I ago – I had a 10-point advantage and then in one month I had the same points as Manchester City,
“We lost 10 points at the end of December or the beginning of January. Then we recovered and won that title.
“You can recover points, other teams they can lose points. During the season there are moments when everything goes against you and there are moments where everything goes in your favour.
“We know the game is not over but the reality is that there is a distance and there are many quality teams.”
