Mourinho: I can smell Stamford success

CHELSEA manager Jose Mourinho has warned Arsenal that his side are ready for the title fight after admitting he can smell the scent of success in the air at Stamford Bridge.

Mourinho revealed that when he took the job as successor to Claudio Ranieri in the summer, he walked into a club which did not have the aroma of winners.

Now with Chelsea sitting proudly at the top of the Premiership summit, in the last eight of the Carling Cup and safely through to the knockout stages of the Champions League, Mourinho says he can detect the distinct whiff of glories to come.
