Chelsea boss Mourinho not obsessing over Quadruple

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has played down the prospect of winning the Quadruple this season.

With Chelsea progressing into the last four of the Capital One Cup and the last 16 of the Champions League, some are tipping the club to win the quadruple.

But Mourinho said: "I go match after match and we can do quadruple on Monday, which is to win four consecutive matches.

"We have to try and if we do a few quadruples during the season we have chances to win competitions but I can't think two competitions at the same time. It's only the Premier League for the next few weeks. That's the competition that matters.

"Every game is three points and important. The accumulation is not for one team - it's for every team. Everybody is in the same circumstances. Some are lucky to have easier fixtures in this period but that's the draw.

"For us it's three away and one at home. Even the one at home will be a London derby against one of the best teams in the competition. Tottenham, Southampton and Stoke now are difficult for us but we are ready."
