With four clean sheets in a five games in all competitions, Jose Mourinho has hailed his team's defensive stability, adding, "sooner or later the goals are coming"
The blues look forward to another impressive victory tonight.
Wednesday's Champions League victory featured arguably Diego Costa's best performance so far this season.
Below is Mourinho's response when questioned about his pre-match rituals particularly in relation to last week's high pressure Group G fixture.
Mourinho; "I like to be in my office at Stamford Bridge, watch a movie on my ipad, he said." I am not in the dressing room, I am relaxed and waiting for the game. Last Wednesday, I had my son there so no movie"
"Sometimes, the television. For example, we play at five o'clock and there is football before, I want to see other results. I look at results in other countries. The players are warming up or in the dressing room, the assistants are taking care of the players, I have nothing to do in that period."
