New Chelsea assistant coach Ray Wilkins is enjoying working with manager Luiz Felipe Scolari.

"We had a little chat on Monday and he put his points across. He rates [the team] extremely highly of course and is pleased with the group he has. We must stay collective and we will be okay," Scolari told chelseafc.com.

"Felipe is massive on the group of players that we have and the club itself. He drives the players forward as a group, not just 11 individuals, so is big on getting us together and chatting as a group, insisting that was just a blip against Liverpool and we have to crack on.

"He was as disappointed as the rest but he is quite an upbeat guy. He is a breath of fresh air, and has a load of emotion. He was good after the game. His main priority was to make sure they weren't too down. There was no anger.

"He is very hands on. If you want to have a word with him it is not a problem, any player can have a word with him and he will attempt to sort the situation out. He loves the group of players, and enjoys the work, he does all the training and loves the involvement. I have been very impressed."
