Jose Mourinho: Every team in the Premier League wants to be like Chelsea

JOSE MOURINHO has claimed that every team in the Premier League wants to be like Chelsea following his side's 3-1 win over Leicester this evening.

Boring Chelsea? Jose Mourinho's witty response to Arsenal jibes

Efforts from Didier Drogba, John Terry and Ramires helped the Blues fight back from a goal down to secure all three points at the King Power Stadium.

Chelsea are now 13 points clear at the top of the table, and a win against Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge on Sunday will see the club lift their first title in five years.

Arsenal fans chanted 'boring, boring Chelsea' during the two sides' 0-0 draw last Sunday, but Mourinho believes that the Blues deserve more respect for their efforts this season, adding that every team in the Premier League aspires to be like his squad.

I know exactly what we are. We are what every team would like to be

Jose Mourinho

Mourinho said: "It is phenomenal what they are doing, top of the league since day one is not easy. They play against a team on a fantastic run, playing at home with big enthusiasm.

"My experience in football teaches me to just worry about my own feelings. I know what I feel in relation to my work in the past two years, I don't need other people to recognise what we are.

"I know exactly what we are. We are what every team would like to be."
