Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has stressed that he doesn’t give too much importance to his personal rivalry with Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho.
Arsenal and Chelsea played out a 0-0 draw at the Emirates yesterday and the result meant that six more points will see the Blues captain John Terry lifting the Premier League title this season.
A draw yesterday also meant that Wenger stretched his winless streak against Mourinho to 13 games but the Frenchman said that the rivalry doesn’t interest him.
The Arsenal boss stressed that the game was about his team taking on Chelsea and not about his personal rivalry with the Blues boss. He added that he wanted to win the game for the club and not to end his voodoo against Mourinho.
“It’s about our club and our team, not about me”, Wenger told the club’s official website.

“What you want is to win the game for the club. The rest may be good for media talk but it’s less interesting [for me].
“What is important is what happens on the football pitch.”
Mourinho and Wenger have a well-documented personal rivalry.
The current Chelsea boss has termed the Frenchman ‘a specialist in failure’ and they were involved in a physical altercation on the touchline earlier in the season at Stamford Bridge.
