For the past few months, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been saying in the press that there has been ‘conspiracy’ going on against his team.
Mourinho criticised Sky Sports for their coverage over Nemanja Matic’s sending off against Burnley. The Portuguese felt Barnes should have been sent off for his “criminal tackle” on Matic, a reaction to which the Serbian was given the marching orders.
The Chelsea manager highlighted four crucial moments that went against them during the 1-1 draw against Burnley in the Premier League.
