Jose Mourinho Says Chelsea are Still “Champions” Despite Recent Failures

 Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho does not blame himself or his players despite worst start to a Premier League season since 1988.

 Jose Mourinho is under huge pressure after Chelsea's recent losing streak was compounded by a 3-1 defeat by Everton at Goodison Park, in which Everton's Steven Naismith stunned the Blues with a hat-trick.

 Chelsea have suffered three defeats in five games, and the league tables reveal that they are the first team to concede a dozen goals this season, making it Mourinho's worst start to any league in his career. "The results are the worst results ever in my career. I am not happy but I am coping well with the situation. The priority is to keep doing what we are doing, the players are feeling enough sadness,"

The Portuguese manager told BT Sport. Everton supporters chanted "You're getting sacked in the morning" and displayed anti-Mourinho banners during the game, but Mourinho reminded football fans that until somebody wins the league, Chelsea are still "the champions". "I am a champion, the players are the champions, the way they are playing is not as bad as the results but in every single game things are going against us," he told BT Sport. Despite his team's dismal start to the season, Mourinho maintains that his place is with Chelsea: "I am the man for the job. I don't think there is better man who could come and do my job."
