SPORT: No Cause For Alarm: Chelsea Back Mourinho In The Eye Of Storm

Chelsea Manager Jose Mourinho ‘Still The Special One’

Chelsea Football Club have backed their under-fire coach Jose Mourinho despite the precarious position of the club in the English Premier League this season.

In a statement released by the club on Monday, the West London side insists the job of the Portuguese tactician with the Blues management is secured even in the eye of the storm.

“The club wants to make it clear that Jose continues to have our full support,” Chelsea said in a statement, in support of the Portuguese tactician.
“We believe that we have the right manager to turn this season around and that he has the squad with which to do it,” the statement added.

Terry, who is playing for the side since 1998, said this team is no different to the one that won the EPL title and urged his players to keep fighting. “I have been here a long time and I have seen managers come and go and if anyone is going to get us out of this hole it is going to be Jose Mourinho,” the 34-year-old defender said.

“Generally I think we are looking low on confidence but we have a big group of players in that dressing room and we need to stand up, which we will do. There is no difference from last season,” pointed out Terry, who was benched for the last two matches before being fielded on Saturday.

“We need to be hungry like we were. Like many teams find, it is difficult to come back after winning the Premier League, we have seen it with Man City,” the former England captain reasoned.

Chelsea currently occupy 16th position on the Premier League log with eight points from eight matches played so far.
