Antonio Conte has insisted his feud with Jose Mourinho is personal and that nobody should intervene. The Chelsea boss has vowed "I won't forget" Mourinho's criticism, after the Manchester United manager hit out at Conte over match fixing. Conte branded Mourinho a "little man" after Chelsea's goalless FA Cup third round draw at Norwich on Saturday, and has now stood by those comments. The former Juventus boss insisted he has no regrets over hitting back at Mourinho, but moved to shut down any further discussion of the two managers' falling out. "Do I have the look of a person with regret? I don't think so," said Conte. "I think we both said things, and we'll see what happens in future."

Asked if the League Managers' Association should try to repair the damage between them, the Chelsea boss said: "I think it's not important, the association, you understand. He said serious words. He has used serious words. And I won't forget this. This is not a problem for the club, it's a problem between me and him. Now I stop this."
