1 Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has launched an astonishing attack on the Stamford Bridge faithful following the Blues’ 2-1 victory against QPR.

Goals from Oscar and Eden Hazard helped the west London side to all three points against Harry Redknapp’s side on Saturday afternoon.

But the Portuguese chief has slammed the crowd, claiming he would rather play away matches at the moment.

“Everyone knows how much I feel connected to this club and the fans,” he told talkSPORT. “At this moment it’s difficult for us to play at home though, because playing here is like playing in an empty stadium.

“The team then starts playing like it’s a quiet, soft game at home. It’s difficult to get that strong start where the players, team and fans at Stamford Bridge [are all together].

“I was today looking around and it was empty, but not in terms of people because it was obviously full. That’s what frustrating.”
