Jose Mourinho has confirmed Chelsea will be without Willian and most probably Pedro too for Saturday’s crucial Premier League game against Arsenal.

He insists he has nothing to prove and also bristled when it was suggested he had an issue at staying with clubs for the longer term, countering the suggestion his third season was when everything goes wrong.

Jamie Carragher believes Chelsea’s 3-0 defeat against Premier League rivals Manchester City was partly down to Cesc Fabregas” lack of “tactical intelligence’.

The Colombian – signed on loan from Monaco – was brought in by Jose Mourinho following the departure of Didier Drogba this summer and will compete with Diego Costa and Loic Remy for a place up front this season.
