MOURINHO v WENGER PAST MEETINGS

By Andy Hampson, PA Sport

Rival managers Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger will clash again when their Chelsea and Arsenal sides meet in the Carling Cup final. Here we look at their previous meetings.

ARSENAL 2 CHELSEA 2, PREMIERSHIP 12/12/2004

The two sides fight out a gripping draw, but the first seeds of ill feeling between the managers are sown as Mourinho complains about the quickly-taken free-kick from which Thierry Henry scores Arsenal's equaliser.

Chelsea are well on course for the title, but Arsenal at least make them wait by claiming a point at Stamford Bridge. Wenger offers guarded congratulations to the likely champions. "On the pitch they have done fantastic and deserve to be congratulated," the Frenchman says.

CHELSEA 2 ARSENAL 1, COMMUNITY SHIELD 07/08/05

Didier Drogba's double fires Chelsea to victory at the Millennium Stadium - but Wenger is far from impressed, lambasting the Blues for their "long-ball" tactics. "You can worry for the Chelsea supporters," he concludes in his scathing assessment of their play.

As a consequence of Wenger's Community Shield comments, the next contest is much hyped but largely fails to live up to expectations. Drogba claims a fortunate winner when the ball deflects in off his knee.

ARSENAL 0 CHELSEA 2, PREMIERSHIP 18/12/05

This is rivalry at its most intense as the sides clash again, against a backdrop of accusations and counter-claims from both managers. The feud hits its height as Mourinho calls Wenger a "voyeur" and says he has a 120-page dossier of comments made by the Frenchman. The row continues over who sent whom a Christmas card, and there is no handshake after the game. Mourinho then accuses Arsenal of targeting Michael Essien.

CHELSEA 1 ARSENAL 1, PREMIERSHIP 10/12/06

Ashley Cole's first match against his old club since his controversial departure overshadows the game, in which Chelsea snatch a point with an Essien equaliser.
