Chelsea boss Mourinho: Champions League no obsession

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho denies he's obsessed with winning another Champions League crown.

He denied the quest to follow his 2004 win with Porto and 2010 success with Inter Milan is an "obsession".

"To win with three clubs is unique," Mourinho said. "But it's far from being an obsession and it's not something that I think about a lot.

"Even if I don't do it, how many top managers in the world have only one or even not a single one?

"The greatest in our country (Sir Alex Ferguson), he won it twice. Do I want to try to win it again? Of course. But in this moment I only think about 'don't play Europa League'.

"We have a championship of six matches and three opponents (in Group G) and we have to do everything to qualify."
