Allegri lashes out at 'pathetic' Mourinho

In an Italian television interview to be aired on Wednesday, Allegri did not hold back on his opinions about the self-styled Special One.

"Every so often he's pathetic," he said of the former Internazionale, Chelsea and Porto boss.

"I keep repeating the same things all the time and it's becoming banal.

"I think he's very good but behind his arrogance he's hiding insecurity."

Mourinho spent two seasons in Italy, winning the Serie A title twice and the Champions League last year.
