Honestly, I knew there was more to the ‘betrayal’ statement. I knew he just couldn’t spill it to the media at that moment cos (probably) that would look like another big excuse/reason for his failure  the club’s recent woes.

 The Times have claimed that Mourinho’s anger /verbal attack on his players wasn’t triggered by the club’s 2-1 loss to Leicester on Monday, it actually sprang from the blues’s champions league clash with Porto last weekend. He was said to have been shocked beyond wits to find out from a contact at his former club that  his starting line-up for the Champions League game had been leaked. 

Hence the statement “One of my best qualities is to read the game for my players and I feel like my work was betrayed.” Simply put, the ex Real Madrid coach is convinced there is a mole within the squad. Recall that he said that during his spell at Madrid.

To be honest, any manager will blow his top after such revelation.  And Mourinho who is usually not generous with kind words kept that part from the media, like i mentioned earlier, that wouldn’t shoot their rank on the standings up.

Chelsea’s game against Sunderland this season might determine the Portuguese’s fate at the club.
