Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas admitted that he is disappointed the Blues' fans booed Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand in the 3-3 draw yesterday. The England centre back was heckled every time he touched the ball at Stamford Bridge yesterday.
Villas-Boas was left fuming because of the incident, and slammed supporters for their behaviour: "You have to condemn it when there is discriminatory, aggressive behaviour but you don't expect opposing fans to cheer your players.
"This is a normal situation in the Premier League. We know the situations. We know we have to play a part.
"If we want to push on this sequence of events to extend in the future, it's up to us. It's up to me and it's up to you in the press.
"If you want to give importance to situations like this, if you let people take responsibility, assume responsibility and the fans and the knowledge that maybe what they were doing makes no sense, it's better but to try to prevaricate isn't right."
