Mourinho blasts national managers who ‘simply don’t care’

“You are not happy when you give players in good conditions and you receive the players in bad conditions.”

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has spoken of his simmering discontent with uncommunicative national team managers over the treatment of his players in the continued absence of striker Diego Costa.

Spain striker Costa is out of Tuesday’s Champions League Group G clash with Maribor with a hamstring problem which has plagued him persistently this season.
