Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho believes his club's history is more important than his personal baggage as he prepares to host old side Chelsea in a crunch Premier League clash on Sunday. Mourinho won three Premier League titles in two spells as Chelsea boss between 2004 and 2015, but his relationship with his former employers has been strained by a war of words with Chelsea boss Antonio Conte. However, Mourinho insisted that United's clash at home to Liverpool in two weeks' time is more of a special occasion given the historical rivalry between England's two most successful clubs. "Playing Liverpool in a few weeks means more because for my club -- and everyone knows that the most important thing is not me -- to play Liverpool has a special meaning," he said.
