Chelsea players are in the dark over what manager Luiz Felipe Scolari is thinking.

The Brazilian's struggles with English is preventing him from getting his message across, it has been revealed.

A source close to the dressing room revealed to The Sun: "Jose (Mourinho) would sometimes go very quiet but he'd get over it quite quickly and when he did, the players were even more keen to hear what he had to say.

"Scolari is much harder to read maybe that's because he's apprehensive about how it will come out."
