In his prematch breifing Mourinho has said a lot of things. He spoke to ESPN about the FA cup encounter, the quadruple saga and the Liverpool second leg Carling cup fixture next week.
Hear him:
"To help the title race, the best thing is to lose against Bradford and to lose against Liverpool and to lose against Paris Saint-Germain and to play only Premier League until the end of the season.
"But not with us. Not with our mentality, not with our way of thinking about our job, not with Chelsea DNA.
"The other day, a coach of a big team was knocked out of the cup and he was saying 'good, very good, this is perfect for us, now we can focus on the other competitions'. If I lose against Bradford I don't say that. I say it's a disgrace."
"I prefer it very, very difficult, and congested, and lots of matches, and risk of losing everything," he added. "But I can't choose matches, I can't choose competitions. I can't. When we lose, we lose. But we want to win."
On Liverpool, Carling Cup and Gerrard, he said:
"So this will be the last two or three times that Chelsea play against Liverpool with Steven Gerrard. I feel he was a fantastic 'enemy'. I don't like the word, a fantastic football opponent and I respect him a lot.
"When war has finished there are no enemies any more. I'm not trying to do something that Chelsea fans dislike or something to try to make them happy. I don't even think about it. I just speak by feeling, by emotion."
