Match Reviews:
It was December 2013 in the offices at Stamford Bridge, and Jose Mourinho was in one of his better moods, when he can be hugely engaging company. Tony Pulis certainly thought so, even though he had just seen his Crystal Palace side beaten 2-1.
Pulis recalled the encounter ahead of their next meeting three months later and the Welshman was effusive in his praise of Mourinho – with one caveat. “Whether you like him or dislike him for what he is, there’s no doubting he is a top manager,” Pulis said. “The time I had with him was charming – but they had just beaten us. It would be nice to see on Saturday if he’s charming.”
As it turned out Pulis’s side did beat Chelsea (1-0, in a game that Mourinho later said cost his team the title) and the Portuguese did remain charming. There was none of the familiar sniping about the opposition.
