Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has challenged his players to support him in this new era for the club.

Mourinho is still presenting himself as the "Happy One" as the big kick-off begins to loom large on the horizon.

But he admits that could change and said: "Until the first defeat, I'm very happy.

"When the first defeat comes I will be the same as before. I will be very sad and unhappy that my team doesn't win.

"But it is also up to them to help and support me and try to get a good result for the club every match.

"Because to me this means much more than a football club, much more than being a professional - it does mean a lot."
