Watch Jose Mourinho respond to Chelsea fans' 'F*** off Mourinho' taunts in the best way

Footage captured by a fan at the game shows the Portuguese manager responding to chants of “f*** off Mourinho”, sung by some in the stands on his return to Stamford Bridge.

Mourinho, 54, held up three fingers at the offenders, reminding them how many titles he won over the course of two successful spells in west London.

The clip has gone viral since being uploaded to Twitter, as supporters of other clubs slammed the disrespect shown by some at the ground.
