Domenech Launches Stinging Attack On 'Farcical' Mourinho

France coach Raymond Domenech has launched a sensational attack on Inter coach Jose Mourinho as he picks another fight and pours more scorn on the Italian game.

Domenech will be best remembered in Italy for his post World Cup outburst after the Azzurri won the FIFA trophy in 2006. Since then, the French coach has kept on taking aim at various figures. He has now, perhaps, picked on the wrong person as he tries to shoot down Mourinho.

"Mourinho is like the British tabloids, his best strength is to provoke everything and everyone, and he doesn't even care about himself anymore," Domenech told Sport.

"There are always farcical situations when Mourinho is around."

Domenech chose the worst week to launch an attack on the 'Special One'. The former Chelsea coach has been furious this week after his side's loss to Atalanta on Sunday, as well as angry with reportsclaiming he lost his temper with his side.

Mourinho has already been involved in various spats this season withJuventus coach Claudio Ranieri, CataniaCalcio and Italian journalists.
