Inter Milan boss Mourinho aimed a swipe at the Rossoneri, following the former's exit from the Champions League, when he implied that Ancelotti's side have no hopes of silverware this term.

The Milan manager was quick to respond to the outspoken Portuguese's comments, ahead of Sunday's Serie A game with Siena.

"When people describe Mourinho they always refer to him as a ‘communicator,’ but that part of his personality frankly bores me, because he often says pointless things," Ancelotti told L’Avvenire newspaper.

"I would advise Mourinho not to talk about Milan anymore."

Nonetheless, Ancelotti paid tribute to his Inter counterpart, whose team were ousted from Europe's top club-competition at the hands of holders Manchester United.

"Regardless of what happened in Manchester, in any case, he remains a great Coach and I am more intrigued by his working practices," added the Italian.
