Wenger: I was 'sad' to see Mourinho lose his job

ARSENE WENGER says he was "sad" to see notorious rival Jose Mourinho lose his job.Mourinho was sacked by Chelsea last week after a disastrous start to their Premier League title defence.
The Portuguese left the club with nine defeats from their opening 16 league games.He and Wenger have played out their share of spats, both on the touchline and in the media, since Mourinho rejoined Chelsea in 2013.
But when asked on his thoughts on Mourinho's departure, Wenger insisted he wished the 52-year-old had stayed on at Stamford Bridge.

"There’s no need to add anything,I don’t want anyone to lose their job,I think it’s always sad when people lose their job."Wenger said.

Mourinho is a candidate to replace Louis van Gaal at Manchester United - if the Dutchman is sacked before the New Year.Van Gaal reportedly has just two games to save his job.

United travel to Stoke on Boxing Day before a home game against Chelsea, under the interim management of Guus Hiddink, two days later.
