But speaking at a press conference ahead of Chelsea's FA Cup tie with Manchester City this weekend, Mourinho said: "He's a specialist in failure. I am not."

Mourinho added: "The reality is he's a specialist because eight years without a piece of silverware, that is failure.

Manchester United's most expensive signing, Juan Mata, during his interview stated that he joined the Premier League champions so as to win the title(though with Man Utd sitting in 7th position, 14 points behind League leaders Arsenal).

"I would like to win the Premier League," he said in an interview with in-house channel MUTV.
"It's a very, very special trophy and I think at this club you can achieve anything. I am young and I have been lucky enough to win some trophies, but I want to win a lot more."
Mata, who is in line to make his United debut against Cardiff on Tuesday night, admitted he was surprised Chelsea were prepared to let him go midway through the season.
"To be honest I think it's a bit surprising, but I have to say I am really grateful to Chelsea - to the owner, to the people working in the club and to the fans," he said.
"The last six months were difficult for me, I didn't play as much as I wanted to.
"I understand that football is a team sport and I respected that situation. But the chance to come to Manchester United was a great chance for me to carry on with my career, they are a massive club."
The Spaniard was Chelsea's player of the year for the past two seasons and wrote an open letter to the club's fans on his official website, saying he would "never forget" their "affection".
