Jose Mourinho feels that Uefa should absolve him of any wrongdoing when he meets their disciplinary commission. The Chelsea boss was charged with bringing the game into disrepute following the Barcelona game at the Nou camp.

And sanctions could actually see Chelsea booted out of the competition, although most people feel that would be harsh in the extreme.
Mourhino stated:


"I have the expectation of complete dismissal, complete dismissal," he said in an interview on Portuguese television.

"I think a lot, but at this moment I can't really talk about it."

"In the future I'll talk more.”

"Once the case has been closed and the lawyers have opened the door for me to speak, I will speak out a lot more, but now I have to wait for the process to finish."

"I'm spontaneous.”

"When I say something it is not in order to provoke.”

"Strangely enough, the same gesture that I had for the British versus Liverpool a few days ago, I saw Adriano do the same, presumably criticising because his team is not scoring.”

"This gesture happens often, but everything that I do is seen and analysed in a negative way."
