Jose Mourinho: No Chelsea players are untouchable

“Untouchables in football, only consistency can give you that status.”

Jose Mourinho has questioned the attitude of his Chelsea players, none of whom he would describe as untouchable, ahead of Tuesday night’s Champions League clash at his former club Porto.

The Blues boss memorably described the nucleus of his first Chelsea side as permanent names on the team-sheet, but believes his underperforming players are short of that status this term.
