‘Betrayed’ Mourinho turns on Chelsea players after loss

“But it is frustrating to see what they are doing in training and what they do in matches”.

“I accept we are in the relegation zone but I don’t accept we are in a relegation battle”, said Mourinho. No I don’t believe this.

“We conceded two goals that are unacceptable for me”.

The Blues secured their fourth Premier League title last term but have endured a disastrous start to the current campaign.

“To turn things around, I know only one way: working at the top level”, he added. One of my best qualities is to read the game for my players and I feel like my work was betrayed. When questioned over whether he would kick Leicester’s in-form danger man in order to achieve three points, Ivanovic said he was more than willing to bend the rules.

Responding to his tweet about presenting Match of the Day in his undies, Mrs Lineker was quick to point out ‘Given your history, hope they’re clean’. “And when you have some players, especially in some crucial positions, that they don’t go to the normal level is hard”. “His second reaction was ‘I want to try, ‘ and when he goes on the pitch, first step he immediately says ‘I can’t do it.’ It was him in a few seconds who had three different perspectives, but clearly he couldn’t do it”. The mistakes were there. It would be something magnificent, it would be something to impress the football world, but sometimes these things can happen and why not happen with them?

People might come in for Vardy and Mahrez, but if the players are smart they will stay where they are. Substitute Loic Remy pulled one back for the visitors with 13 minutes left.

“The top four is gone – clearly”, he told Sky Sports.

Victory was extra sweet for Ranieri who was sacked by Chelsea in 2004, a year after Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich took ownership of the London club. “You laugh, but I do”.

Of the next five games on Leicester’s fixtures list, Ranieri said: “Everton, Liverpool, Manchester City, Bournemouth and Tottenham are all very tough games. We just need to get the 40 points and then after that we will see”. They continue to dream but we must continue to keep our feet on the ground.

Ranieri confirmed Danny Drinkwater had injured his hamstring and would be assessed on Tuesday while Robert Huth will miss the trip to Everton next weekend through suspension after picking up his fifth booking.
