| Jose goes down Keegan trail |
 DESPITE
the best efforts of Wigan’s Pie Eaters to buck the trend, the
Premiership suffered a hefty dose of déjà vu in the
last few days. Roy Keane had his annual television hissy fit, this
time after catching Rio Ferdinand practising his Ja Ja Binks impersonation
when he was supposed to be passing the ball sublimely out of defence
(they say it has happened).
Spurs were then denied victory in the chilly north west by a Mr
Magoo of a linesman.
 But
not before Thierry Henry remembered to turn up against a truly mighty
team (well I’m sure Mick McCarthy’s mam thinks they are)
and the food flew at Old Trafford after a long-standing unbeaten
run came crashing down.
Oh sorry, it was only Arsenal who behaved like big girls’ blouses
when their Uninvincibles lost miserably at the Theatre of Cheating
Keepers.
The sight of the Special One spitting red wine down his donkey jacket
was enough to ward Chelski’s rubbish players off the buffet
trolley on Sunday. Apparently.
The celebrations would have lasted into Monday if we’d got
the public holiday Jose, or Mini Me as curly top Kevin Keegan now
calls him, proposed should Chelsea finally lose in the league.
Not that it mattered to Blues fans who were so red faced they took
the day off anyway.
If only that blessed linesman had done the same.
 BY
my own rough reckoning, Jose Mourinho should know more about football
than me, I can’t argue with the evidence.
Jose Mourinho achievements: Champions League winner with Porto,
Premiership winner with Chelsea, famous Matalan overcoat. Richard
Osley achievements: Repetitive Grimsby joke – now a record
eight weeks old, torn duffel coat.
 But,
maybe, just maybe, he isn’t the special one he says he is.
It turns out he knows nothing. After all Jose has fooled himself
into thinking Moan United were “lucky” to beat Chelsea
on Sunday. Give it a rest, you sour, boring man.
Anybody could tell him that jittery Chelsea were beaten because
Sir Taggart’s team, for once, had more determination, skill
and, ultimately, goals than them.
Methinks Jose’s judgement may have gone haywire because he
is feeling a tad disappointed that his £300 million team won’t
break Arsenal’s mighty 49-game unbeaten record. You can’t
buy that kind of class. And if Jose wants to talk about luck –
maybe he can look back at that lucky Didier Drogba goal, scored
accidentally with his lucky knee, earlier this season that gave
them a lucky win over unlucky Arsenal.
I know what you’re thinking – no mention of Spurs this
week – let’s concentrate on the teams in the top five
of the table.
