Jose Mourinho has singled out Graeme Le Saux following his Chelsea team's trip to Israel.
The former Blues defender opted not to travel when the West London club last visited the country for their UEFA Cup meeting with Hapoel Tel Aviv back in 2001 due to security fears.
In 2015, Mourinho has a full squad to choose from for the Champions League fixture with Maccabi Tel Aviv on Tuesday night and insisted that all of his players, even those expecting babies, were more than willing to do the job for their club.
"I didn't have one single problem inside of the squad," said Mourinho.
"I didn't have a Graeme Le Saux. I had everybody without fears, just wanting to come.
"I had even a player who maybe tomorrow or after tomorrow, his wife is having a baby and he's here to play, because he knows how important it is for us."
Mourinho added that Chelsea are looking to continue to get their season back on track after a shambolic beginning and will be eager to produce the performance that could guarantee them a spot in the Round of 16 of Europe's premier club competition.
"We are focused on what we have to do," Mourinho added.
"We are very disappointed with the bad results we had for a significant period of time and we need to keep getting results for our happiness, for our pride, and obviously for the people that support us, Chelsea fans."
