Alan Pardew believes you have to have fire in your belly as a top coach and labelled the steward who subdued Mourinho man of the match
Jose Mourinho was not at fault for his aggresive reaction to taunts from a member of the Chelsea coaching staff on Saturday, according to Alan Pardew.
The Blues secured a 2-2 draw with a late equaliser at Stamford Bridge - a moment Chelsea coach Marco Ianni celebrated directly in front of the opposition dugout.
That prompted a vociferous reaction from Mourinho, who had to be held back from confronting the Italian, but Pardew said it was Ianni who was in the wrong and defended the Reds' boss.
