Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho saw Shaun Wright-Phillips score his
first goal for the club last night and declared the winger not for
sale.
SWP struck in Chelsea's 2-0 victory over Levski Sofia and Mourinho
said: "I am happy for him. He is a special case. He is a boy that
deserves to be happy. He is a great professional.
"Normally he has chances coming from the substitute's bench for 20
or 25 minutes. It is not easy for him to express the qualities he
has doing that.
"I am not giving him a lot of chances from the start of matches but
talk of him leaving his just speculation.
"I want him to stay. We know the squad is good in quality but short
on numbers.
"We cannot lose players. We have 19 outfield players for the four
competitions we are still involved in - we need every player.
"If the answers from him are positive ones then that is good for
me, the team and for the boy. His future does not depend on a goal
he scored."
