Mourinho's bad mood following Chelsea's 3-0 loss away to Werder Bremen has resulted in him criticising the Bundesliga.

"The English League is not like the German one, where you know who will finish first and second. In England you might finish first or sixth. The Premier League is tough", Mourinho said on Sunday night following defeat in a pre-season friendly against Werder Bremen.

According to Mourinho, his players were comprehensively beaten by the German side because of the referee. "We were expecting a fast game, a competitive game, but we come here and the referee thought this was a circus for Bremen fans - for them to have fun - and he killed the match", said the Portuguese.

The referee called two clear penalties for Bremen, one on 20 minutes and the other after 89 minutes, which were slotted away by Eljero Elia and Felix Kroos respectively. The Chelsea manager claimed to have "learnt nothing" from the game.
