Chelsea's players were inspired to victory at Liverpool thanks to cocky Reds fans.
The Mail on Sunday says the emotional side of Jose Mourinho's team talk was driven by the triumphalist attitude that confronted the Chelsea team as their team bus weaved its way into Anfield.
"The players couldn't believe the attitude as they turned up to the ground," an insider said. "It was like it was game over. It really wound them up and fired their desire to win.
"It was just the inspiration a much changed team needed."
