Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho has not been getting results with his team this season. While speaking to the press ahead of Chelsea’s champions league group game against Porto, the Portuguese manager noted that there were no untouchables in his current team.
During his first spell at Chelsea, Mourinho labelled about eight players as untouchables but has now stated he has none for now.
“Zero. To be untouchable you have to be consistent. You have to be a fantastic player but you have to be consistent. We have fantastic players, the players who gave us the title last season, no doubts about it, but football is about today, not about yesterday.” he stated.
He also warned the players to be consistent in their performances and emotionally.
“In football you have to be consistent in your performance, consistent in your emotion. To be a winner you don’t need to win all the time, you lose, you cannot win all the time, but you need a strong mentality every game, every day.
“In this moment I don’t have untouchables. I have very good players, players I like very much. I like my squad, I like their qualities, their human qualities, they are a very good group of guys. That’s a privilege to work with a group I like so much, no doubts about it, but untouchables, only consistency can give you that,” he further explained.
Chelsea faces Porto in the second round of the 2015/2016 Champions League group matches on Tuesday, September 29, 2015.
