Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, has replied Arsenal fans who hassled his team with chants of “boring” in their 0-0 draw on Sunday.
The Blues kept the Gunners out in another fine defensive performance, as they continued their march towards the Premier League title.
As the home supporters got more frustrated by Chelsea’s unwillingness to attack, they sang “boring, boring Chelsea”.
Mourinho who started the match without a recognised striker, said afterwards: “Boring, I think, is 10 years without a title. That’s very boring.”
“You support the club and you’re waiting, waiting, waiting for so many years without a Premier League title, so that’s very boring.
“But maybe they weren’t singing to us. Maybe, when you want to win a game and you’re at home and you take your No 9 [Olivier Giroud] off, maybe the home fans want to see Danny Welbeck and Giroud up front.
“The boring team is the second team with most goals in the Premier League, the best goal difference. Only Manchester City have scored more goals than us.
“If you tell the truth, people will fall in love with it. But you have to tell the truth. If you say the truth, you will walk in the truth and people will blow kisses at you.
“So I think we scored a lot of goals and, in a period where we don’t have Diego Costa or Loic Remy and have only one striker, we need to work in a way where he can help ourselves with all the matches we are having.
“We changed a bit our dynamic and we are not scoring so many goals as before.”
Chelsea are two wins away from winning the title and face Leicester City next on Wednesday.
