In late 2014, Chelsea were handed their first defeat of the season by an unlikely source. Alan Pardew's Newcastle would finish the season in the bottom half, but not before toppling the team who would go on to be champions at their home stadium.

The Magpies were leading 2-0 when Steven Taylor was sent off after 81 minutes, giving Chelsea the chance to mount a comeback. Drogba quickly scored but the Tyneside club would survive the rest of the game, including six minutes of added time, much to Mourinho's chagrin.

Speaking after the game, the Chelsea boss began an extraordinary analogy stating, "You may as well put a cow in the middle of the pitch, walking. And then stop the game because there was a cow. You cannot do just anything in football. You have to defend. You have to defend with your ten men, put the ten in front of the goal line, bring the bus, but football needs a ball, not two or zero. Do what you can to win but not everything".

Got that? No? Us neither. Moo-rinho strikes again.
