Mourinho and Wenger have a long-standing rivalry, with the Frenchman yet to beat his counterpart in 13 attempts, while the Blues manager described the 65-year-old as a &ldquo;specialist in failure&rdquo;.
The pair come face to face this weekend as Arsenal look to win the Community Shield for the second consecutive year, but Mourinho is unconcerned by the make up of his opponents with silverware on the line.
When asked if he takes pride in his record against Wenger, Mourinho replied: &ldquo;No. It doesn&rsquo;t matter, Arsenal, the manager, whoever. I think (the Community Shield is) in between. It&rsquo;s more than a friendly, like with Barcelona and PSG (friendlies), but it&rsquo;s less than a league game. (So, we have) Different motivation.

&ldquo;Who knows?&rdquo; he said when questioned on Wenger&rsquo;s ability to win. &ldquo;I&rsquo;ve never made a special thing about wins over Arsenal. I don&rsquo;t explode with happiness when I beat them, and I won&rsquo;t make drama when I lose.&rdquo;
Mourinho has confirmed that Gary Cahill and Diego Costa will be fit to play on Sunday after picking up knocks against Barcelona.
