Chelsea 2013/14

"Giant clubs don’t talk about what happens in the tunnel."

"The game was finished. Giant clubs, giant players and giant managers close their mouths."

"It is a period I like."

"It is a period where I think the squad can play a role not just the team."

"It is a period when I think only the braves can survive. Because it is hard. We go into Christmas and the accumulation of matches is high."

"Winning the title this year would be a greater achievement than before, yes, I think so."

"History plays a role. To win when a club is not historically a winner is a hard step to give, so 2004 was a hard step to give."

"My job is different. It’s different. In every way."

"I think the competition is different, the teams are different. In my first time it was just three teams fighting for the title."

"“Now we are six and the difference between the three and rest was a big distance, while in this moment the distance between the six is short. And the distance between the six and the next three or four is also short."

"This is difficult. Nobody knows what can happen. Maybe the difference between succeeding and not, or reaching Champions League or the Europa League, or the Europa League and nothing, is a couple of points."

"But it will be really good fun. We have the competition that every country wants to have and nobody else has, not Spain, Germany, Portugal."

"Here we have this fantastic league, so we shouldn’t complain. We should enjoy it."
