Mourinho: 'Herrera dive will be forgotten'

Jose Mourinho has said that Ander Herrera's dive during Chelsea's win over Manchester United will be forgotten because he is not a Chelsea player.

The midfielder was booked for simulation in stoppage time of the Premier leaders' 1-0 win at Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening.

The Chelsea manager said at his post-match press conference: "I am happy that it was not a Chelsea player because, if it was a Chelsea player, in this moment on Sky it would be 'somebody's crimes', would be 'cheating', would be 'the champions of the team without fair play' and this kind of thing.

"Because it's a Man United player, tomorrow nobody remembers so I'm happy with that. Conspiracy does not go on, I'm happy it's not a Chelsea player."

Eden Hazard scored the only goal of the match to leave Chelsea 10 points clear at the top of the table.
