Mourinho now wants Chelsea to win the Champions League, as they played like heroes against Spanish giants Barcelona.

“I’d like Chelsea to win. Chelsea boys were heroes yesterday,” The Sun quoted Mourinho, as saying.

“I know that some people that think they are the masters of the game will criticise Chelsea in the same way they criticised my Inter,” he added. u00a0
