Petr Cech not going anywhere, says Mourinho

Thegoalmac can reveal that Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho insists the Blues have received no offers for goalkeeper Petr Cech, despite speculation he may leave the club.

Mourinho also said he felt his team would not be affected by the absence of top scorer Diego Costa for Wednesday’s Premier League clash with their London rivals.

“It doesn’t affect us,” he told reporters. “We trust Loic Remy and Didier Drogba the same way we trust Diego Costa.

“We’re top of the Premier League, top of the group in the Champions League and in the quarter-finals of the Capital One Cup. We’ve not lost a match for four months. The team has to feel very, very good.

Spurs have failed to win at Chelsea for over 20 years but Mourinho remains wary of Mauricio Pochettino's men, who beat Everton 2-1 on Sunday.

“I don’t know the record, I don’t think it’s important and I don’t speak to the players about it because it’s not important,” he added.

“It’s a big game, a London derby, against one of the top teams in the league – we like it. That’s what we have to think about.

“They’re a difficult team that we have to play against. We have to think it’s a difficult match and we have to be ready for it.”
