Jose Mourinho refuses to discuss 'four incidents' after Chelsea drop points

Mourinho refuses to discuss 'four incidents'

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho refused to discuss a number of incidents from his side's 1-1 draw at home to Burnley this afternoon for fear of punishment.

The hosts saw claims for two first-half penalties waved away before Nemanja Matic was shown a straight red card for his angry reaction to a challenge by Ashley Barnes.

Burnley went on to level in the 81st minute, but, when asked whether the red card changed the course of the game, Mourinho told BBC Sport: "No. There are four moments of the game where you can write the story. Minutes 30, 33, 43 and 69. Don't ask me more questions.

"I can't go through the incidents. I am punished when I refer to these situations and I don't want to be punished.

"To describe I have to use words that I cannot. It is better we finish. I don't want to look silly in front of you. I am surprised we didn't lose."

Mourinho was fined last month for suggesting that there has been "a campaign" against Chelsea in recent weeks.
