My players are betraying me

What next for Jose Mourinho

 Jose Mourinho insists he will fight to stay as Chelsea manager after accusing his players of betraying him in their 2-1 defeat at Premier League leaders Leicester City. Mourinho told Chelsea’s underachieving stars to be humble as they look to turn around their dismal defence of the English title and claimed he wants to remain in charge.


Chelsea have lost nine of their 16 league games so far this season and sit just one point above the relegation zone, while Leicester climbed back to the top thanks to goals from Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez at the King Power Stadium on Monday. “I feel like my work was betrayed,” said Mourinho.

“I worked four days on this match and prepared everything relating to the opponents. “I identified four movements where they score almost all their goals. “My players got all that information but we still conceded the first and the second goals from those movements.”

Mourinho claimed his team’s hopes of a top-four finish are over after they fell 20 points behind Leicester, despite substitute Loic Remy scoring to give them hope with 13 minutes remaining.
