Mourinho slams punishment 'campaign'

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho claimed there is a "campaign" to get his players wrongly punished for diving following his side's 1-1 Premier League draw at Southampton on Sunday.
After Eden Hazard canceled out Sadio Mane's opener for Southampton, referee Anthony Taylor booked Chelsea's Cesc Fabregas after he went down under a challenge by Matthew Targett in the second half.
Television replays indicated the official might have been mistaken, as Targett appeared to make contact with Fabregas after slipping, but Mourinho suggested there was more to it than that.
