The 52-year-old Portugese led the Blues to his third Premier League title with Sunday's 1-0 defeat of Crystal Palace, with three games to spare.

Ferguson was 51 when he guided Manchester United to his first championship back in 1992/93.

Mourinho, the self-proclaimed Special One, has this season's trophy to go along with the 2004/05 and 2005/06 wins from his first spell at Stamford Bridge.

"I have a long way to go, but Sir Alex left the bar in an impossible position for anyone," Mourinho said. "I cannot win 13 Premier Leagues.

"I can win 13 championships. I can. I have eight, I think I can go to 13. But 13 Premier Leagues, no, no chance."

Mourinho needs four more championships to reach 13, after two wins with Porto in Portugal, another two with Inter Milan in Italy and one with Real Madrid in Spain, plus his three with Chelsea.
