Arsenal boss Wenger: I knew Mourinho would return. This is England!

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger isn't surprised to see Jose Mourinho back at Chelsea. He believes money has played an ­important part in the Chelsea revival that ­began ­under Mourinho in his first spell at the club.

Wenger said: "We had restricted financial ­resources for years. Everybody knows that. It's simple.

"I always thought he would come back.

"They always come back. Why? Because this is a football country - the only football country in Europe and in the world.

"There is ­something special about the game in this country.

"When the foreign managers are here they do not always like all of it - but they all like to come back."
