The Mourinho Thread

"I love my Chelsea players".

Jose Mourinho has said he "loves" his Chelsea players again because of their incredible performances this season, insisting that even when they are not at their best, they are still good.

The Blues preserved their lead at the top of the Premier League with a dominant 2-0 win over high-flying West Ham on Boxing Day, with captain John Terry and Diego Costa getting the goals.

And while Mourinho rejects the notion that his team already have one hand on a first league title in four years, he was full of praise for the consistency, quality and attitude of his players.

"Football is football," he told reporters after the West Ham win. "You never know. The only thing we can do to try and reduce the unpredictability of football is to do what were doing - playing very, very well.

"The reality is, since the Burnley match, the team is playing sometimes better, sometimes not so good, but always good, solid performances.

"The results are good, the performances are quality, the players are happy, Im happy as a coach because my team is playing well, Im happy as a guy because I love my players.

"Thats something I missed for a while and with this group I have that.".

The players are happy, you are happy, and the fans are happy.

There is a lot of love in here :wub:

Jose Mourinho should leave us alone... hopefully we'll face Chelsea in Europe, says leading Real Madrid figure

Mourinho recently criticised Real Madrid's first team stars by saying he had missed being in love with his players during his time at the Santiago Bernabeu.

And his latest remark appears to have angered a senior Real Madrid star. Speaking to Marca, the unnamed player said: 'Hopefully we'll face him in the Champions League. If we reach the final, here's hoping it's against Chelsea. Then we'll do our talking.

'a senior Real Madrid star', guess who? :rolleyes:

He got it wrong today with the line up. I understand that we had to freshen up the team due to the hectic schedule but soto have the best/2nd best defensive record in the league and we usually struggle against defensively resilient teams. this was not the game to play Schurle and Mikel. Heck those two would have been better off playing against westham instead.

Tactically and logically it was not the right thing to do. It was too little too late in the end. I also felt Remy should have been introduced much earlier instead of Drogba and Costa should ahve been taken off as he was having a poor game and adding nothing to the attack.

The momentum is firmly in City's court now and they show no signs of stopping.

No. People always bitch about the lineup, no matter what.
