Chelsea reach a landmark in the Roman Abramovich era today at QPR.

Sunday's trip to Loftus Road marks Chelsea's 700th game under the ownership of Abramovich, a period Jose Mourinho says has been positive not only for the club but for English football as a whole.

"He has been good for Chelsea, good for English football, good for European football," said Mourinho, who has been in charge for almost five of those 12 seasons.

"Chelsea after him became strong, a top club in the country and a top club in Europe. I think that's very, very good. I think it's important and I think it's also important the message Mr Abramovich and this club are passing now."
