Mourinho vents anger at ref Poll

Poll (left) sent off Chelsea skipper John Terry earlier in the season

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has hit out at Graham Poll, describing him as a "referee Chelsea have no luck with".

Poll, who sent off John Terry against Tottenham earlier in the season, upset Mourinho again in Wednesday's 0-0 draw with Manchester United.

Mourinho said: "With Mr Poll and Chelsea there are so many incidents.

"We don't like to have Mr Poll. We have to accept decisions, but if you ask me if I jump with happiness when I know Mr Poll is our referee? No."

Mourinho lost his temper in the second-half after United winger Chris Eagles was only booked for a two-footed challenge on Shaun Wright-Phillips and then a Wes Brown challenge left Scott Sinclair with a broken metatarsal bone.

The Chelsea boss launched a furious tirade at Poll and initially thought he had been sent off, before realising his mistake.

"I was telling Mr Poll a couple of things I have had in my heart since the Tottenham game at White Hart Lane. But it was nothing special. I was cleansing my soul," said Mourinho.

"I thought I was being sent off but I wasn't. I walked to the stands but then my assistants were saying 'you can stay in your position.'

"I think he (Poll) was what he is always. He had a normal performance when he is refereeing a Chelsea match."
