Deco: Chelsea boss Mourinho best in world

Former Chelsea star Deco says Jose Mourinho is the best manager in the world. Deco, who left Barcelona in 2008 when Pep Guardiola was appointed first team boss, says the wealth of European experience can help the Stamford Bridge outfit challenge for the Champions League again this term.

"I know exactly what the atmosphere here is like, when I played here with Barcelona it was very difficult and, after that, I played for Chelsea, so I know how the atmosphere can help the team," he told Chelsea TV.

"Chelsea have the best coach in the world and many experienced players, such as Lampard, Terry and Samuel Eto'o.

"They have fantastic younger players as well, we all know it's difficult but in the Champions League anything can happen."
