Mourinho: The Special One becomes the Quiet One over Matic

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho declined to discuss Nemanja Matic's two-match suspension which rules the midfielder out of Sunday's Capital One Cup final with Tottenham. The automatic three-match ban was reduced to two in mitigation but the Blues announced they were "appalled" and "frustrated" by the decision not to absolve the midfielder.

"If I give you my views, it's bad for me," said Mourinho.

"I can't give you my views. If I speak again about the Matic situation I will be in big trouble."
