Fabregas: Players at fault for Chelsea form

After Jose Mourinho said the Chelsea players had "betrayed" his work, Cesc Fabregas admitted they are to blame for the club's malaise.

Cesc Fabregas says the Chelsea players are to blame for the club's woeful form this season.

Although Jose Mourinho's men secured a place in the last 16 of the Champions League last week, a 2-1 defeat at Leicester City on Monday left them 16th in the Premier League table, just one point clear of the relegation zone.

Following the match, Mourinho claimed the players had "betrayed" his work, and Spain midfielder Fabregas admitted he and his teammates need to play to their expected levels.
