Mourinho plays Blues’ fall guy

JOSE MOURINHO has told his players he will take the heat in the Nou Camp today as baying Barca fans prepare a ‘welcome to hell’ reception for Chelsea.

Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard has appealed for peace and even asked supporters to applaud Chelsea and their controversial manager as they take to the pitch for the biggest game in the Champions League so far this season.

But Mourinho was spat on and abused as Chelsea arrived in Spain on Sunday, after a hate mob lay in wait for him at the airport, and he is ready for more.
