Southampton (United Kingdom) (AFP) - Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho claimed that there is a "campaign" to get his players wrongly punished for diving following his side's 1-1 Premier League draw at Southampton.After Eden Hazard had cancelled out Sadio Mane's opener for Southampton on Sunday, 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 that the official may have made a mistake, as Targett appeared to make contact with Fabregas after slipping, but Mourinho suggested that there was more to it than that.He listed previous incidents when Chelsea players had been booked for perceived dives, including one involving Diego Costa against Burnley on the opening weekend of the season.Diving had also been the topic of post-match conversation after a 2-0 home win against Hull City earlier this month, which saw England defender Gary Cahill topple to the turf in an eye-catching manner."Why was it not a penalty?
