Mourinho's arrogance

I gather he was mocking the French league ahead of last night's match by saying that PSG's game over the weekend wasn't as intense as Chelsea's training sessions ... or something like that
I didn't see or hear his post-match interview last night so I'm wondering what his excuse was for his side being outplayed , outsmarted and physically out-muscled at home by a team playing with 10 men for most of the match
PSG have been a top quality side for the past few years and they're the only side I've seen recently who literally made Barcelona chase shadows at Camp Nou.
Last night , playing without their star striker and with a numerical inferiority they still managed to dominate the Premier League's top team ( says a lot about how cr@p the "best league in the world" is methinks)
So go on then , O special one , what's the excuse this time?

Let's be fair many chelsea fans use being top of the league as a comfort blanket.
They are hurt from last nights result. Many thought they would go very far in the competition. Before last nights game they were confident and I bet they all thought it was in the bag when Ibra got unjustly sent off.
Fact is they are completely gutted about last nights result. Now onto the league where they should win it but who knows. If they don't get a result against a good southampton side at the weekend then it's all to play for

Many but not all. Nearly all i know place League infinitely higher on the targets list from the start of the season. Your intimate knowledge of the inner feelings of Chelsea fans is impressive though. We all thought we were gutted about the performance not the result. Nice to know you are here to correct us.

When I dont think we had a chance in CL to begin with? Yes.

Anything else you need help with? I suppose you know what I would tell you anyways so feel free to tell me

I'll never understand why so many managers insist on having no defenders on the goaline at corner kicks.

Chelsea lost two goals to this oversight yesterday and it could have easily been two more. The day before, two of the seven goals in the Real-Schalke game might have been prevented with a defender on the post.

Week after week we see a goal or more being scored in the BPL this way. I'd really like to have someone with a better understanding of the game than me, to explain the philosophy of this strange modern, goal-costing philosophy!

No love for JM whatsoever but it's worth noting the hundred's (financially doped) of millions spent to assemble their side.

Because Chelsea haven't spent astronomical amount of money then

Try a less stupid excuse next time

Chelsea are FFP compliant.

PSG have wholly disregarded FFP and are lucky to be in Uefa competition in the first place.
