Cesc Fabregas the ‘Rat’ who turned against Mourinho? Nothing could be further from the truth [Telegraph]

Jose Mourinho’s sacking at Chelsea has led to all sort of plot twists and intrigue.
Far from a routine results-oriented sacking, there was a lot more to Mourinho’s sacking than meets the eye, the conspiracy theorists insist.
A narrative of a dressing room mutiny has persisted throughout the season, and ultimately proved to be Mourinho’s downfall – again if you believe in the smoke and mirrors stuff.

Cesc Fabregas, Diego Costa and Eden Hazard have been identified as the chief conspirators for some reason (possibly thanks to Piers Morgan’s allegation), which now sees the trio suffering with pariah status at the club.
Labeled as ‘snakes’ and ‘rats’, many Chelsea fans are convinced that they betrayed Mourinho.
But according to Matt Law in the Telegraph, nothing could be further from the truth – in Cesc’s case anyway.
Law claims that Cesc was actually Mourinho’s closest ally in the Portuguese’ dark final days, and that Fabregas met with him personally both immediately before and after the sacking.
Which would mean his Tweet thanking Mourinho was genuine, and not some Machiavellian manipulation.
