Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has admitted that he may have gone too far when he criticised the team's supporters for not being vocal enough during his side's 2-1 win against Queens Park Rangers.

The Portuguese conceded that he overstepped the mark with his comments, but insisted that he made them because of his love for the club.

"Maybe I go a little bit too far," Sky Sports News quotes Mourinho as as saying. "But I see myself in the stands watching Chelsea and I want to play, I want to help.

"If I'm not a player, I cannot play. If I'm not a coach, I cannot make decisions. If I'm just a fan, what can I do to help? That's just my view.

"This is not, for me, just a job. It is more than that, because it's Chelsea."

Chelsea lead the Premier League by four points after 10 matches this season.
