For the first time in his coaching career, Jose Mourinho feels he can be in the same place for a very long time. Chelsea's boss stated in an interview he wants to stay with The Blues "until they want me to go". Mou said that, unlike any other moment in his coaching years, he is not planning what his next move will be:
"I'm truly The Happy One. I want to build a team that can last for many years. The main difference between this time and my previous stint as coach here is that then I didn't intend to stay for a very long time here, now I will stay here until Roman (Abramovich) wants me to leave," Mourinho said.
Regarding Chelsea's options on winning the Premier League, Mourinho assured his team has a pretty good shot at winning the title, considering this summer's signings, such as Spanish Diego Costa:
"Diego is doing a magnificent job. He has scored more goals in six matches than most of our strikers last year. The first goal by any of our strikers while playing away came on January 1st, and by the end of the tournament they managed to score five goals away from Stamford Bridge. If we keep playing this way, we may end up giving our fans more than a thrill," the Portuguese coach added.
Chelsea will play against Sporting Lisbon for Matchday 2 of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.
