Jose Mourinho has another pop at Michael Oliver as he claims the referee is 'unlucky in his decisions with me' despite being 'one of the best in the Premier League and in Europe' just days after his rant following Spurs' derby defeat by Arsenal

Jose Mourinho has taken aim at Michael Oliver again after claiming the match official is 'unlucky in his decisions' with the Tottenham boss.

The Tottenham boss was furious with Oliver's decision to award Arsenal a spot-kick in his side's north London derby defeat on Sunday, describing his penalty record under the official as 'astonishing' after the game.

His complaint of having a poor penalty record with Oliver does hold some weight, with Sportsmail revealing the match official has given an average of one spot-kick every 3.5 games against Mourinho's sides – far more than any other referee in England's top flight.
