Fabregas revealed why Jose Mourinho was sacked from chelsea

Contrary to earlier claims, Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas has revealed that former coach Jose Mourinho was sacked by the Chelsea board due to too much trust he had in his players.

Mourinho lost his job in December 2015 after overseeing a poor stretch of form and poor results despite being the club’s most successful manager in it’s 110 year history winning three league titles, FA Cup, Community Shield and three League Cups.

Fabregas, who insists he remains on good terms with Mourinho, says he and his Chelsea team-mates were to blame for taking advantage of the former coach’s trust.

Speaking to Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football, Fabregas said:

I have huge respect for him, we still keep in touch right now. The biggest problem was he trusted us too much, gave us more holiday because we were champions and we let him down. That was the main reason he had to go – and for that myself and the team feel bad for it.
