Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has called out a Crystal Palace ball boy after the Special One felt the kid was wasting time as the Eagles beat the Blues 1-0 on Saturday.
Towards the end of the match at Selhurst Park, a ball boy was accused of mucking around with the Chelsea players as he took his time throwing a ball to Blues full-back Cesar Azpilicueta.
Remembering the incident last season at Swansea when Eden Hazard kicked a ball boy, Mourinho stepped into the fray, put his hand on the young boy to draw him in close, before whispering something in his eye which one can only assume for some parenting tips from the Chelsea manager.
After the game Mourinho spoke about the incident with the ball boy, and the Blues boss called out the Palace kid for unruly behaviour. Mourinho said:
I don’t like the ball boys provoking the players. Because at the end of the day what happens it what happened last year at Swansea when a player loses a bit his temper and after that the player is guilty of something that the player is not guilty. I dont think it’s right to educate kids like that.
I told the ball boy not to do that because he runs the risk of one of my players punching him or losing his temper. Someone told him to do that.
I went there to stop Azpilicueta… All my four defenders are phenomenal in their attitude.
