The 52-year-old expressed his surprise at the “aggression” of PSG, claiming the Ligue 1 champions were even more physical than the lower league opposition the Stamford Bridge outfit have faced this season.
“I thought an English team would never be surprised by aggression, because aggression we have in our country,” as quoted by CaughtOffside.
“This season we’ve played against sides form the Championship in the Cups, against teams from League One, and Shrewsbury from League Two, but the most aggressive team was PSG.
Mourinho made the sly dig that with the quality of Blanc’s team, the lack of football was disappointing.
He added, “For me, that was a real surprise. With players of such quality, I was expecting more football and less aggression.”
