Mourinho league record v top six
Opponent G W D L W%
Arsenal 7 2 5 0 29%
Everton 7 4 2 1 57%
Liverpool 8 6 1 1 75%
Man City 7 5 1 1 71%
Man United 7 3 3 1 43%
Spurs 7 4 1 1 57%
What everyone knows is that Wenger has never beaten Mourinho... however, Mourinho has a lower win percentage against Arsenal than against any other top side in England (this is solely in the PL).
So does Wenger have a hold over Mourinho then?
Seeing as Mourinho's Chelsea has "dropped" more points against Wenger's Arsenal then against any other top side I would suggest he is more capable of dealing with the "Speshial One" then any other manager.
The only team to take more points off Jose then Arsene is Man United who have taken 6 points as opposed to Arsenal's 5 points. Interestingly Everton have also taken 5 points (including their 1-0 win earlier this season).
The battle is clearly more closely fought than the "winless" statistic would have one think. At least in the PL anyway.
The results in other competitions have been;
2-1 in a Community Shield which is a friendly game
2-1 in Carling Cup final in which Wenger played the youth side.
2-0 in this years Capital One Cup in which both sides played weakened teams and Chelsea's superior squad was proven.
But forget all of these stats. Wenger has never beaten Mourinho and so clearly Mourinho>Wenger. (This last statement is indicative of how people perceive certain stats in the face of all other evidence).
Mourinho's "hold" over Wenger

Thought Liverpool would have had a better record than that.
With man city most of those games were pre sheikhs so its understandable

I'd actually say that league cup final was the best game we gave them despite fielding a VERY iinexperienced team

Mourinho knows how not to lose.
5 defeats in 43 bears this out.

Mourinho realised early it's best to let is have the ball and attack then catch us on a quick break. It's not pretty but it's effective if you have the right players

Mous too scared to try and give us a game, even though he has arguably better attacking options.
