The Blues' supporters also displayed a number of signs supporting their recently fired coach, while players such as Diego Costa & Fabregas were given a 'special treatment'.

Not all of Chelsea's supporters are fully convinced that sacking Mourinho was the way to turn things around. Today, the Blues defeated Sunderland with a good display by some players that could not find their best form with Mourinho at the helm, but the fans' reaction from the stands was something to talk about.

A number of the team's supporters held hand-made messages thanking Mourinho for all the memories, while blaming the players for the club's current predicament. Particularly, Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas were blamed for Mourinho's sacking, as the crowd chanted their former boss' name when both players were subbed off the pitch.

Chelsea defeated Sunderland 3-1, thanks to goals by Ivanovic, Pedro and Oscar. Fabio Borini netted the Cats' lonely goal.

Fans shared their thoughts at Stamford Bridge.

Fabregas was booed even before the game started.

Mourinho supported former assistant Aitor Karanka

While the Portuguese boss' name was chanted at Stamford Bridge, "The Special One" attended the Championship game between Brighton and Middlesbrough, coached by former assistant Aitor Karanka. Karanka worked with Mourinho for three years at Real Madrid, and the two have kept a close relationship since then. "Boro" went on to win the game 3-0 as Mou watched from the stands.
