Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho unhappy with Jan Vertonghen after Tottenham draw
Last Updated: September 29, 2013 11:34am
Jose Mourinho believes Jan Vertonghen was to blame for Fernando Torres getting sent off during Chelsea's 1-1 draw at Tottenham Hotspur.
Torres was dismissed in the 81st minute and the Blues were left to hang on for a draw after John Terry cancelled out Gylfi Sigurdsson's opener for Spurs.
Mourinho felt the momentum had been with Chelsea before referee Mike Dean's decision to give the Spaniard a second yellow card following an innocuous aerial collision with Vertonghen.
Mourinho was unhappy with Vertonghen's reaction and also pointed to the Spurs defender's tug on Nicklas Helenius' shorts in the Capital One Cup match against Aston Villa in midweek, which went unpunished and meant he was available to face Chelsea.
"Football is football and things happen which we don't know why. At that time we were much better and stronger, they were in trouble," said Mourinho.
"When I arrived here in 2004 I had players arriving from other countries and I had to educate them because England is England and other countries are other countries. In other countries people say the guy is clever and the guy is intelligent because he pretends it's a penalty or a red card. Not in England, that's not what I learned here.
"That's why I don't think the referee is guilty, he made the wrong decision but he trusts the player. When you see the player with his hand on his face and pretending it was a violent action the natural tendency is to follow and make the decision.
"It was a situation where the player wasn't helping the referee. He's a fantastic player but he's a special guy because three days ago he left the player naked against Aston Villa. It wasn't a penalty or a red card and he shouldn't have played today, he should have been suspended from a red card against Villa. Today he changed the game, I'm not happy."

Who, Jan or Torres?I can't say that I liked him on the ground holding his face.
This is the second time I've heard this and I don't know what game you were watching.Who, Jan or Torres?
The ball hit Jan somewhat unexpectedly in a painful area of the forehead. He was very briefly stunned, unsure of exactly what had struck him. More than what happened to "The Boy" who, in a fit of agony, was rolling on the floor clutching his face just as injuredly. Dog-eat-dog world. Jan won.
