Great stat: Mourinho has led the league at Christmas during seasons: 11/12 with Real Madrid 09/10 with Inter Milan 08/09 with Inter Milan 05/06 with Chelsea 04/05 with Chelsea 03/04 with Porto 02/03 with Porto and won the league at the end of each of these seasons!

I really, really want us to win this trophy. Jose hasn't won anything for two years which is unusual for him, so the quicker he gets that off his back the better. Plus it could give the team a lot of belief and confidence. Also, I would love to see the likes of Hazard, Oscar and Costa experience winning something at Wembley for the first time. So hopefully we play a strong team, go a few goals up and then we can rest players, luckily we don't play again until the following Monday night.

This isn't that relevant, but I'm assuming Jose is a Porto fan? So he will definitely want to beat Sporting Lisbon even if the match means nothing to us haha

If someone had told me that night against Atletico that we wouldn't lose again for over 7 months, I probably wouldn't have believed them. Better to lose the record against a team most of us don't have a problem with, instead of one of our rivals! I still think this will be a great season for us, one loss won't change that.
