Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has hit out at Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas after the latter's revelations about their shattered friendship ahead of today's clash at White Hart Lane, and called him a tale-telling 'kid'.
According to the Mirror, asked how he would describe their relationship now, with Spurs boss Villas-Boas having confirmed they no longer speak, Mourinho replied that he would not describe it because he is not a kid who discusses relationships with the media.
Mourinho said that it was a personal thing and he was not here to discuss it, adding that he does not care what Villas-Boas says because he is not interested.
He also said that if someone had a problem with him, they had to say it face-to-face, adding that it was what his parents had taught him.
