Mourinho is at it again

BBC SPORT Football My Club Liverpool Benitez dismisses Mourinho claims:

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho can always be relied upon to try to play some head games prior to a big match. Before today's first leg Champions League match against Chelsea he is actually trying to plant a seed into the referee's head by accussing Liverpool of targeting Chelsea players who go into the match on one yellow card.

But Liverpool manager Benitez is having none of it:

"It hadn't crossed my mind, but maybe it has Mourinho's because that is what Chelsea did two seasons ago to Xabi Alonso."

Benitez also wryly says:

'I am learning many things I didn't know,' said Benitez. 'That Chelsea have injury problems, but so do we. 'That they're tired and we're playing less important games. They've spent a lot of money over the last few years and they've a big squad. I also hear that he says Chelsea have got 60 more points than us over the last three years. Well to do that they've spent big, how much has each point cost them?'
