Mourinho Statement
He said: “I want to stay and I hope Mr Abramovich and the board want me to stay.
“When some of your players don’t hit the levels they are capable of it is hard to see. This season we are doing so bad for some reason.
“To turn things around, I know only one way, working at the top level. Day by day in training I have no complaints with them.
“But it is frustrating to see what they are doing in training and what they do in matches.”
