We are not well but we have Mourinho - Chelsea midfielder Fabregas

Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas has put his faith in under-fire Blues manager Jose Mourinho.


The Premier League champions are currently languishing in 16th spot after a poor beginning to their title defence and the Spaniard acknowledges that the situation soon needs to change.

The 28-year-old, who is on national duty with Spain at the moment, told Radio Marca that despite Chelsea's woes, Mourinho is definitely the man to pull the team out of their current mire.

"Personally, he (Mourinho) helped me in a very complicated moment of my career and he gives me confidence," said Fabregas.

"I will do whatever he asks. In face-to-face situations he helps me a lot and I respect him for that.

"We (Chelsea) are not well, but we will do better. We have the best coach for the club. People have not forgotten that three months ago we won the Premier League and a cup, but we have to change the situation fast and soon."
