Meyler had a chance to pull a goal back for the visitors with a penalty after half-time but the Republic of Ireland international had his penalty saved by Chelsea keeper, Willy Caballero.
Willian was captured getting in Meyler’s face before he missed the penalty and the Brazilian revealed what was said during their conversation
He told beIN SPORTS, “I told him ‘no pressure, no pressure!’
“I told him ‘you’re going to lose’ and ‘you’re gonna make a mistake’ and he said ‘shut up, shut up!'”
The Brazilian international further highlighted the importance of Chelsea gaining some much-need momentum ahead of their Champions League clash with Barcelona next week.
