Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho lost a wager with a West Ham ball boy on the same day the Blues were defeated 2-1 by the Hammers at Upton Park.

The Portuguese manager was sent to the stands by referee John Moss during the defeat, and he is now facing a possible stadium ban for his antics during the game.

But it was not just the game he lost that day. Former West Ham player Stuart Slater told the Knees Up Mother Brown podcast: "Before the game Mourinho was talking to the ball boys and mascots. One of the mascots said to him 'we're going to beat you!'

"When he returned from the warm-up he came back into the tunnel and asked which one of the mascots said West Ham were going to beat Chelsea. One of the boys put his hand up and said 'it was me!'

"Mourinho told the boy he was going to have a bet with him. He said, 'If we win I'll have your shirt - and if you win, I'll get you a signed Chelsea shirt'.

"Whether it happened or not, I don't know - but it was brilliant that he could have a little bit of banter before the game!"
