Jose Mourinho has launched a fresh verbal attack on Arsenal, branding their 11 year wait for the Premier League title as 'boring'.
Led by skipper John Terry - whose performance was described as his best ever by Mourinho - the Blues produced a defensive master class in a goalless draw at the Emirates Stadium to take a step closer to the championship.
Frustrated at what they perceived as the visitors' lack of attacking intent, home supporters chanted: 'Boring, boring Chelsea' throughout Sunday's clash.
Their views were shared by Arsene Wenger, who said Chelsea 'came to defend' after the final whistle.
But Mourinho, who started the game without a recognised centre-forward, hit back, insisting Arsenal's 11 years without winning the league is truly mundane.
'Boring, I think, is 10 years without a title. That's very boring,' said the Portuguese.
'You support the club and you're waiting, waiting, waiting for so many years without a Premier League title, so that's very boring.
'But maybe they weren't singing to us. Maybe, when you want to win a game and you're at home and you take your No 9 [Olivier Giroud] off, maybe the home fans want to see Danny Welbeck and Giroud up front.
'The boring team is the second team with most goals in the Premier League, the best goal difference. Only Manchester City have scored more goals than us.
'If you tell the truth, people will fall in love with it. But you have to tell the truth. If you say the truth, you will walk in the truth and people will blow kisses at you.'
'So I think we scored a lot of goals and, in a period where we don't have Diego Costa or Loic Remy and have only one striker, we need to work in a way where he can help ourselves with all the matches we are having.
'We changed a bit our dynamic and we are not scoring so many goals as before.
Mourinho, whose side need five points to secure the title, hasn't needed much encouragement in criticising the Gunners since arriving in England in 2004.
He labelled Arsene Wenger a 'voyeur' in 2005, before branding the Frenchman a 'specialist in failure' last season.
