AC Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti has hit out at Inter counterpart Jose Mourinho.

"When people describe Mourinho they always refer to him as a 'communicator,' but that part of his personality frankly bores me, because he often says pointless things," Ancelotti told L'Avvenire newspaper.

"Regardless of what happened in Manchester, in any case, he remains a great Coach and I am more intrigued by his working practices."

Mourinho responded today by declaring "we are not like Milan. Our season isn't already over by March," but that drew further criticism from Ancelotti.

"I would advise Mourinho not to talk about Milan anymore."
