No, but Keegan didn't rant - he had a meltdown on live TV.
Rafa was methodical in his approach and very calm. Mourinho's tried everything to rattle the cages of the teams around him, but the media jizz themselves in to a frenzy at his 'infamous mind-games'. As Chris has quite rightly pointed out, the difference is noticeable; if Chelsea are pipped to the title, will the media look back at this point and say 'this is where he lost it'? I doubt it very much.Comment

what the **** is supposed to be wrong with that now? It's not even a real quote. The hatred here is bordering on rabid.

I don't think he wanted to win that game. FA Cup means nothing to someone who feels they're chasing a League and European Cup double. Adds to City's fixture congestion and alleviates theirs. They don't face City again and so blowing a little smoke up Pellegrini's arse about them being the better side diffuses that argument too. He's not as daft as we'd hope to think he is unfortunately.
He's also given Pellegrini a false sense of achievement should they meet in the CL later in the seasonComment

Jose Mourinho called 'boring bully' over Arsene Wenger comments
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is a "bully" engaging in "boring" mind games, Arsenal legend Bob Wilson has said.
On Friday, Mourinho responded to Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger's claims that managers were playing down their Premier League chances because they were "afraid to fail" by calling the Frenchman "a specialist in failure".
"I think at it's best it's disrespectful, at it's worst despicable," former Gunners goalkeeper Wilson told BBC Radio 5 live. "I find him boring in the extreme."
"I think it's personal," continued Wilson, who played more than 300 times for Arsenal.
"He is a self-publicist and it's mainly inaccurate. To say West Ham play 19th-Century football, to give [Manchester City boss] Manuel Pellegrini the abuse he has, like Arsene - I don't like bullies."
Mourinho has repeatedly played down his side's title chances, despite their position at the top of the league, and has likened the Blues to a "little horse", not yet ready to be title challengers.
Wenger, who last won a trophy with Arsenal in 2005, said that in ruling Chelsea out of the race, Mourinho was setting up a position from which he could not fail.
Mourinho said: "If he is right and I am afraid of failure it is because I didn't fail many times. Eight years without silverware, that's failure."
Wilson, a former Arsenal goalkeeping coach, says Wenger has "opened eyes and ears" during 17 and a half years in England and is frustrated by Mourinho's "dismissive" comments.
"It's not the first time," Wilson, 72, told the Sportsweek programme. "A few years ago he called him a voyeur, which is a disgusting claim - albeit thankfully with a belated apology.
"I like people who have within them some humility as well. [Former Liverpool manager] Bill Shankly was in his day, like Jose Mourinho. He took every opportunity to psyche you out. He would get at you, but in a lovely, sort of competitive way."

Hard to believe these are grown men. This stuff all but disappeared when Mourinho ****ed off, now he's back and straight into "warring" with two managers at the same time. Yawn.Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’Comment
