Jose Mourinho has taken his first dig at Jurgen Klopp…

Jose Mourinho isn't one to make friends with his rivals, and with Jurgen Klopp landing at Liverpool it seemed only a matter of time before the Chelsea boss had a dig.

At his press conference for Saturday's game against Stoke, Mourinho - who will miss the match because of his stadium ban - took aim at Klopp's sideline antics during Liverpool's 3-1 win at Stamford Bridge last week. "I had a game a few days ago where I stood for 90 minutes in my own technical area. The other manager [Klopp] was jumping like Michael Jordan and nothing happened," Mourinho moaned. "So, for me, I know everything is different. It's all changed a lot. This is what I have. I have to adapt to it. I think the message the game’s powers want to give me. The message is more than clear." Does Mourinho have a point? Or is he merely suffering from a persecution complex? Either way, if Klopp makes Liverpool top-four contenders, and Mourinho remains at Chelsea, expect more barbs towards the German from the Chelsea manager.
