Arsene Wenger has refused to comment on whether he will shake hands with Jose Mourinho today.
The managerial duo go head-to-head for the first time since the Community Shield, where the pair did not acknowledge each other after the clash.
The pair have an ongoing feud; and Wenger refused to answer questions regarding his relationship with Mourinho at his press conference yesterday.
He said: ‘No special relationship (between any manager) is my worry, all I worry about is our performance.
‘I respect everybody in the job and focus on what I love and that is football. All the rest honestly does not concern me much.
‘Realistically people come to watch football and all the rest is a little bit secondary. What is important is the quality of what we will see tomorrow morning at 12.45 and you want people to focus on that.’
Asked if he would shake Mourinho’s hand and if he regretted their touchline burst-up, Wenger replied: ‘I don’t want to talk about that. I have nothing more to say about this situation.’
Wenger was asked if he felt Chelsea were in decline. He replied: ‘I don’t know, I leave that to the specialists. I take care of my team and my own problems.’
