Toure: 'Mourinho talks too much'

Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure has accused Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho of being disrespectful towards rival Premier League clubs.

The Ivorian believes that the Blues boss spends too much time talking about other teams, when he should be focusing on his own club.

"He is a coach and he must give respect a little bit," The Mirror quotes Toure as saying. "He is always talking about everyone and that is not the correct way.

"That is why Barcelona always beat Real Madrid when Mourinho was here. I think he talks more than before, perhaps because the English press likes it."

Mourinho described Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger as "a specialist in failure" earlier this season, and was involved in a touchline clash with City manager Manuel Pellegrini.

Chelsea are nine points ahead of City in the Premier League title race, but have played three games more than the Sky Blues.
