Chelsea boss Mourinho hints at striker signing need

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has hinted he's unhappy with his striker options after defeat at Stoke City.

Mourinho admits they're missing a regular goalscorer.

"If you tell me Aguero has scored already 10 or 12 goals, Negredo 10 or 12 goals, Dzeko four or five, Rooney eight or 10, Giroud eight or 10, Sturridge eight or 10, Suarez 10 or 12, if you ask me would I like my strikers to score eight, 10, 12 goals, yes. If we had eight, 10, 12 goals (from the strikers) we would be top of the league. But my strikers give everything. We keep working. That's the only way I know."

Asked if he would you like 'an Aguero, Sturridge or Suarez' , Mourinho replied:

"They are not my players.

"I don't want answer to that. They are good players, everyone knows."
