Chelsea hope extended northern stay
yields points
tribalfooball.com - November 28, 2006
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho hopes an extended stay in Manchester
will earn them three points at Bolton Wanderers tonight.
"Bolton is a difficult game," Mourinho said. "They have good morale
after beating Arsenal last weekend, but we are ready for it.
"It is always difficult to play there but I can say it is my pitch
because it is where I was English champion for the first time and
took a big step to become champion the next season."
Chelsea will be acclimatised to their surroundings after deciding
to stay on in Manchester following Sunday's draw, rather than
travel back to London.
"We have sacrificed a little bit of time with our families to try
to play these two important games to the maximum of our qualities,"
Mourinho added in the London Evening Standard.
"We are staying in Manchester for four days, to rest and eat well
and prepare for the game, because it is another important one for
us."
