Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has slammed the Football Association for ignoring an incident which saw Robin van Persie elbow and opponent in Manchester United’s tie with West Ham United.
Dutch striker Van Persie appeared to elbow Hammers defender James Tomkins during the 1-1 draw at Upton Park on Sunday but referee Mark Clattenburg missed the incident and the Football Association have not followed up reports of the incident.
And, the decision has incensed Jose Mourinho, who has been left angered after striker Diego Costa was banned for three games for violent conduct for an incident against Liverpool last month.
“The same people that suspended my player [Costa] didn’t want to suspend a player this weekend,” Mourinho told reporters.
When asked about who is comments referred to, Mourinho made an elbowing motion in front of reporters.
“A player did this in the face of somebody else and nothing happened.
“I know that if it was one of mine, I know. Last season the same thing happened, when Ramires was suspended.
“It was exactly the same thing. And one week later a Manchester City player kicked a player on the floor at Norwich and nothing happened. I’m used to it.”
