If beating Arsenal in their own
backyard wasn't enough for Jose Mourinho, the Chelsea manager then
capped a memorable night by walking off the Emirates turf with Mesut
Ozil's shirt.
Mourinho
continued his impressive run against Arsene Wenger - which now sees him
unbeaten in nine games against the Frenchman - after Chelsea swaggered
to a 2-0 victory over the Gunners in the fourth round of the Capital One
Cup.
Ozil, who signed
for Arsenal in a £42.5million deal during the closing hours of the
transfer window and came on as a second-half substitute in his side's
defeat, played under Mourinho at Real Madrid.
Getting shirt: Mesut Ozil gives his Arsenal top to Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho after the game
Ozil revealed that Mourinho sent him a
'Welcome to London' message when he completed his move from Madrid to
Arsenal in September.
And
it appears the Germany midfielder still shares a special bond with
the self-proclaimed Special One after handing the Portuguese his strip
following the final whistle.
Ozil
replaced Ryo Miyaichi after an hour at the Emirates but had little
effect on the League Cup clash as Chelsea cruised to victory.
Hug it out: Mourinho and Ozil still keep in contact following their time together at Real Madrid
