Intro:
Chelsea boss José Mourinho will risk central midfielders Cesc Fàbregas and Nemanja Matić against Queens Park Rangers on Sunday despite the pair being a yellow card away from missing potential Premier League title deciders against Manchester United and Arsenal.Script:
SOUNDBITE: (English) Jose Mourinho, Chelsea manager
(on playing Nemanja Matic and Cesc Fabregas even though a further booking for either of them would hand them a suspension)
"The game is a three points game so we need points, we need victories, we cannot choose matches (to win). I don't think that it makes any sense to think about some matches and not about others. This match is a three point match and we have to play with our maximum power to try and get them."
SOUNDBITE: (English) Jose Mourinho, Chelsea manager
(on whether the game is more important for QPR given their predicament at the bottom of the table.)
"You know we have to win every game. We have to win the next game. And we don't think about the points we have or the matches we have in hand, we just think about the next match. I know QPR have (played) one match more than the teams that are competing with them and everybody knows that they need points in this remaining six fixtures they have. So we know that it is a difficult game for us."
SOUNDBITE: (English) Jose Mourinho, Chelsea manager
(on having been top of the league since August)
"It's a reflection of everything. We have more points than the others. We are top of the league. To be top of the league since day shows also consistency, stability and confidence and a brave approach to every game. So we are there. We deserve to be there but every game is difficult and we still have eight matches to play."
