It might be easier to list the fellow managers that Jose Mourinho hasn't feuded with during his career. 'The Special One' has gone after Guardiola in both La Liga & the Premier League, wound Rafa Benitez up no end, and called Arsene Wenger a "specialist in failure."

Another high profile spat he's been involved in is with Antonio Conte. After winning the Premier League with Mourinho's former side, Conte aimed a dig in Jose's direction saying, "Two years ago Chelsea finished 10th. That cannot happen again. We know the difficulty and for sure we want to avoid the Mourinho season with Chelsea."

Never a man to take an insult lying down, Mourinho opted to go after Conte's history of hair transplants rather than his ex-players and put the Italian in his place with this withering response:

"I could answer in many different ways but I'm not going to lose my hair to speak about Antonio Conte."
