Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has hailed the attitude of midfielder Ramires.

Brazil midfielder Ramires is not yet ready to start following a groin problem.

"Ramires is being a champion, fantastic professional, step by step, working hard, always available for the team," Mourinho said.

"He's in trouble. He's not ready to start a game. He comes to the bench and every time we can we give him a little bit (more)."
