Revealed: The true cost of Chelsea's demise under Jose Mourinho IF you think Jose Mourinho is only costing Roman Abramovich - think again!
They're also ruining the lives of football punters who are being let down on their accumulators and single bets.
According to Paddy Power, gamblers sticking a tenner on Chelsea every week this year would be £66.40 out of pocket.
But if you’d put £10 on Chelsea’s opposition during the same period you’d be up a mammoth £178.50.
Paddy released the stats following Chelsea’s seventh league defeat of the season against Stoke.
While Blues backers are left feeling a little blue themselves, it’s good news for punters who chose to oppose Mourinho’s side.
A £10 rolling acca on the seven teams that beat Chelsea this year would have returned a whopping £161,564.94.
Paddy Power said: “Blimey! Backing Chelsea this year has been expensive business but fair play to punters who were happy to oppose them.
"That £178.50 is a tidy profit – you could buy Radamel Falcao for that,”
