Mourinho Delighted To See EPL Teams In UCL Knockout Round


Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is happy seeing Manchester City and Arsenal also in the Champions League knockouts.

Asked why he was pleased two other English teams had advanced, Mourinho explained it would benefit Chelsea's Premier League push.

He said: "I work in England. I want the prestige of English football and I hope they do well.

"And we have also Liverpool, Tottenham and Everton in the Europa League, so I wish them good (luck) too.

"At the same time it's good for us that our direct opponents in the Premier League are involved in European competitions.

"Manchester United are not. They have the same advantage that Liverpool had last season in terms of the Premier League, a big advantage."
