As the glasses clinked to a re-run of Demba Ba scoring the goal that virtually ended Liverpool’s dreams of winning the Barclays Premier League last May, the footage cut to some shots of Jose Mourinho.
‘Next season,’ he vowed, with Chelsea supporters roaring their approval to a previously unseen clip, which had been recorded shortly after Manchester City won the title.
At Stamford Bridge on Sunday, after Eden Hazard headed the winner against Crystal Palace, Mourinho fulfilled his promise.
