Chelsea No2 Steve Holland played down Jose Mourinho's absence from his media commitments yesterday.

Holland explained why he was the one speaking at the pre-match conference.

"Jose asked me if I would do it today and I am more than happy to do that. Jose over the season is very good and always answers the questions people want him to answer, and I am quite sure that opportunity will occur very soon."
