Report: Jose Mourinho slams Nemanja Matic, Mohamed Salah in half-time rant

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho reportedly blasts Nemanja Matic and Mohamed Salah during his half-time team talk in Sunday's goalless draw against Norwich City.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho reportedly targeted Nemanja Matic and Mohamed Salah in an angry half-time talk to his players at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The Blues have all but ended their chances of winning the Premier League title after taking just a point in a goalless draw against Norwich City, with one game left to play.

According to the Daily Mail, after the first half Mourinho told Matic that he questioned his decision to bring the player back to the club in January, while the Portuguese coach also demanded Salah to return to pre-season 'ready to be a footballer'.

At the end of the match, Ashley Cole, who is widely expected to leave the club this summer, shed tears during the lap of honour at the Blues' final home game of the campaign.

Chelsea are third in the league table, one point behind Manchester City and Liverpool, who both have a game in hand on the West London outfit.
