Chelsea football team manager Jose Mourinho has admitted that although the club might lose points and matches this season, they won't be in a crisis of results.
A bullish Mourinho sent a threatening warning to the rest of the Premier League by insisting that there would be no Chelsea crisis this season and also claimed that there is no pressure when one leads from the front.
With all of their traditional title rivals seemingly on the brink of crisis, unbeaten Chelsea appear bullet-proof. Mourinho remained adamant that Chelsea would not suffer a slump in form and in no mood to give a sucker an even break, The Mirror reported.
He said that the thing that gives them confidence is the results they are getting are not occasional, adding that they are because they have been playing well.
Mourinho said that they believe that, when they lose points, the next game they are going to play well again. He said that against Maribor in the Champions League earlier this month, Chelsea lost two points but in the next game they were not in crisis, adding that they were at Liverpool to play well again.
Mourinho said that he doesn't believe there'll be a Chelsea crisis in the season, adding that he believes Chelsea would lose points and matches, but claimed not in a crisis of results. He truly believes in their ability.
Mourinho claimed that they don't have pressure to lead, adding that the pressure is for the ones who are coming behind. He said that he always felt the pressure when he was behind, not when he was on the top and he has always been competing for titles.
Mourinho claimed that to be first is easier than to be second, adding that if one is first, one thinks just about themselves.
