Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has admitted that it is nearly an 'impossible' task to match former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson's haul of 13 Premier League titles.
Chelsea won the title for the first time since 2010 after claiming a 1-0 win over Crystal Palace on Sunday. Mourinho, who has bagged his third league title with the club, reached the milestone with three games to spare
The Portuguese manager said that he has a long way to go, but insisted that Ferguson has left the bar in an impossible position for anyone, admitting that he couldn't win 13 Premier Leagues, Sport24 reported.
Mourinho further said that although he can win 13 championships since he already has eight, there is no chance for him to win 13 league titles.
Mourinho has won two championship wins with Porto in Portugal, two with Inter Milan in Italy and one with Spanish giants Real Madrid, in addition to his three titles with Chelsea.
