“Has Mou got under Conte’s skin? It looks like he has done a little bit,” Scholes told Sky Sports.

“Conte was probably badly advised, someone told him they were talking about him but Mourinho didn’t mention anyone’s name. He just said ‘other managers’. Conte’s had a little bite back.

“November 5 [when Chelsea play Manchester United] could be interesting.”
