Villa boss Lambert not seeking another Mourinho bust-up

Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert won't be seeking to renew hostilities with Chelsea rival Jose Mourinho today.

The pair clashed earlier this season with the Portuguese maverick suggesting the Scot 'reminds me of me 10 years ago.'

Lambert said: "It was all much about nothing. It wasn't serious. Some people made an issue out of it.

"We had a laugh and a joke afterwards and everything was totally fine between us.

"He was really nice. We all have little spats now and again."

Lambert added: "The thing about Jose is not just that he's been successful, but he's won things in every country he has been.

"When you do that and win things at the highest level then you just have to be a great manager."
