Arsenal launch fact attack on Chelsea

Arsenal manager Ben Clifford has launched a astonishing attack on Chelsea counter part Glen M (Formally known as Jose Mourinho) just hours before the first of two season defining head to head's.

In the surprise pre-match interview Clifford took out what appeared to be hand scribble notes and went on to blast his counter part for a full 10 minutes before leaving the press and Arsenal press manager stunned in a apparent walk out.

The outburst can only be described as a Rafa "FACT" rant. Too late for mind games Clifford describe his rant as being instead insisting Chelsea are more deserving of a "copy cat" manager....

Reporter: " What do you make of Glen's comments when he said he has been happy with the way Chelsea have performed this season " ?

Ben Clifford: " I was surprised, but i have to talk about facts now. Its too late for mind games now let me be clear regardless of the two games coming up".

Chelsea then used the same formation for wins over Crystal Palace (2-1) a (1-1) draw with Brentford and finally a (3-3) draw with West Brom....

Clifford's amazing volly of fact's continued to come in....

"Chelsea's 5 friendly's before the season started 4 of those friendly's formation used ? (4-1-3-2) This established Chelsea formation is no fluke it is the very core of the managers plans that formation"

"Chelsea switched playing styles against West Ham on the 24th December roughly 9 games into the season. Such poor results against smaller sides who can blame them" Clifford went on to say.

"I have no idea where Arsenal were positioned in the Table around turn 9/10. What many believe is we were First which sounds right and unbeaten which is correct as our first loss was much later in the season".

The Arsenal formation (4-2-3-1B)

Tactics used - Tackling - Hard, Mentality - Attacking, Passing - Direct, Attacking style - both flanks, Tempo - Fast, Pressing - Own half

"Those are specialist instructions worked on in the Arsenal training grounds the likely hood they are matched like for like almost impossible unless we are studied and copied."

"Chelsea game vs West Ham December 24th"

Tactics (4-2-3-1B)

Tactics used - Tackling - Hard, Mentality - Attacking, Passing - Direct, Attacking style - both flanks, Tempo - Fast, Pressing - Own half

"It is clear Chelsea have taken advantage of Arsenals formation, and exact special instructions after seeing our lofty league position so early on. If Glen wishes to play down this as frustration or anything then it is clear he is avoiding the accusation. Let me be clear i am accusing this manager a blatant and utter copying - His Chelsea side only improved thanks to another managers tactics and instructions"

"I believe Chelsea are only where they are now thanks to myself, the start of the season the draws to teams such as Sunderland, Newcastle, West Brom, Leeds was a sure sign Chelsea was too bigger club for Glen. I fear for Chelsea next season after they are worked out, i have now come up with a formula which i believes beats my original master plan"

"I refuse to answer any questions on this matter or any other matter"

It was at that moment Clifford stood up and walked away from the Arsenal press conference leaving all in the room absolutely stunned. Have we just seen the worst melt down in the history of TTF or have we actually been given the facts behind Chelsea's so called special season ?

Will Chelsea respond to the stunning claim ? If so what response will there be surly any admission will have to result in Glens removal of manager at Chelsea, refusal to admit possibly the first sign of Chelsea being found out ?

One question that doesn't need answering is how big a two games the two sides now face.
