Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admits that he pushed
Chelsea counterpart Jose Mourinho "a little" during their
Premier League clash on Sunday but has no regrets over his
behaviour.
Laurent Koscielny, Calum Chambers and Danny Welbeck were
all arguably fortunate not to be given their marching orders
by referee Martin Atkinson during a 2-0 victory for the Blues,
while Gary Cahill's aggressive challenge on Alexis Sanchez
sparked an altercation between the two managers on the
touchline during the first half.
Wenger entered Mourinho's technical area and laid his hands
on the Portuguese's chest before Atkinson called both
coaches over to calm tempers.
The Frenchman explained his actions in a post-match press
conference and was unequivocal in his response when asked
if he regretted the incident.
"No," he replied. "What is to regret after that?
"I wanted to go from A to B and somebody confronted me in
between without any sign of welcome. B was Sanchez, to see
how badly he was injured. Honestly, I don't listen to what
[Mourinho] says."
Wenger conceded that he had pushed Mourinho "a little" and
felt that some of Chelsea's players were perhaps fortunate not
to be sent off.
"I think Oscar was lucky to stay on the pitch with the repeated
fouls he made," he argued. "He got a yellow card in the 88th
minute and he was purposefully fouling on every break.
[Branislav] Ivanovic as well. There were some bad fouls but
that's down to the referee, it's not down to me."
Defeat saw Arsenal's unbeaten start to the league campaign
come to an end but Wenger feels that there was little to
choose between the two teams.
The Frenchman added: "It was down to the little things that
were on their side but it was a very even game.
"If you look at the number of saves our keeper had made, you
find nothing, and theirs as well - so the game was about who
can take advantage of an opportunity. We couldn't score and
they did so, at the end of the day, you have to say yes,
[Chelsea were more ruthless].

with no regrets... itz none of mourinho's business... mourinho was like
"Idiot go back to. your technical area.... I have no business with losers like you"

This is one of the things that makes the EPL interesting
