Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri apologised to fans after being confronted by fans following their thrashing at Bournemouth.
The Sun reports a small section of the Chelsea fans braved the cold weather to wait outside the Vitality Stadium until the manager left in order to make their feelings known.
Sarri, 60, was stopped by a couple of irate Blues supporters as he made his way from the dressing room to a waiting car on Wednesday night having decided not to travel back on the team coach.
One asked him if he had it in him to be able to motivate the under-performing players in the wake of the embarrassing loss.
He told the Chelsea boss the display was "disgusting" and labelled it the "worst performance he has ever seen".
But Sarri showed his class by facing up to the inquisition and listening to what the disgruntled fans had to say.
And he then offered his sincere apologies, saying sorry several times before shaking hands and leaving on good terms.
