Acknowledging the support, Mourinho said: “With Chelsea, I think this is my moment. It was amazing. The club should be proud of their fans”
“Today comes in a moment where the results are not good. It comes in a moment where you are asking for my ‘end’. The fans read newspapers. They watch tv.
“They listen to pundits, commentators, opinions, read blogs, and this was quite unbelievable what they tried to say today.
“Today they tried to say: ‘We want you here.’ And, probably, they want to say: ‘All of you, let him work. We want him. Let him work.’ It was fantastic.
“The players showed they wanted to win. Today they did. Last week no, but they showed again they wanted to win. And the fans showed their passion for the club.”
