Back Premier League: Arsene Wenger has no regrets after pushing Jose Mourinho

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says he does not regret pushing Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho in a heated touchline encounter on Sunday. The two managers clashed after a challenge by Gary Cahill on Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez in Chelsea's 2-0 home win.

"What is to regret after that? I wanted to go from A to B and somebody confronted me without any sign of welcome," Wenger said. "B was get to Sanchez to see if he was injured. Was it a push? A little one. You can see when I really try to push." Wenger and Mourinho were eventually separated by fourth official Jon Moss at Stamford Bridge and the Football Association will take no further action.

Chelsea boss Mourinho said he wanted to "forget" about the incident with his rival, and insisted he had done nothing wrong. "It becomes heated because this is a big game, big clubs, big rivals, and important match for both teams. These conditions make a game of emotions,'' he said. "I do so many wrong things in football. But not this time because this time I was just in my technical area and it was not my problem. Game over. Story over." The relationship between the two managers is not among the most cordial. Mourinho labelled Wenger "a specialist in failure" last February.

Chelsea are 1/2 at Bet365 to win the Premier League this season while Arsenal are 20/1 to clinch the trophy.
