CASE OF THE BLUES

IT’S been a terrible start for Chelsea but the idea that Jose Mourinho will not last the season seems strange.

He has so much credit in the bank and though he has not lasted more than three seasons anywhere, he will want to stick around a bit longer. But as much as Jose likes things to be about him, now it’s time for his players to take some responsibilty.

Eden Hazard was Player of the Year but is well off the pace and Diego Costa looks more interested in fights than football. Mourinho hasn’t helped with his constant changes at the back but now his players must perform.
