SLAVEN BILIC SYMPATHISED with Jose Mourinho as he was forced to watch the second half of Chelsea’s 2-1 defeat to West Ham from the stands.
Mourinho — who has been under increasing pressure due to his side’s lacklustre start to the season — did not return to the dugout for the second half at Upton Park after an incident with officials during the interval that followed a first-half red card for Nemanja Matic.
Chelsea did not hold a media conference following the final whistle, and Bilic admitted he did not see Mourinho.
