CHELSEA FOOTBALL CLUB
Jose Mourinho said that Paris Saint-Germain’s win in
the Champions League on Wednesday night over Chelsea was because they were aggressive
and coped better with the pressure of the game.
Chelsea were knocked out of the competition by
10-men PSG, who twice came from behind to win an interesting last-16 tie
against Chelsea at Stamford bridge on away goals.
The Portuguese said after the match: "I want to discuss that with the
players tomorrow and see the game in a calm way."
"I want to see their feelings, I want to know what they
felt on the pitch and we must try to find conclusions about our performance.
Our performance wasn't good enough.
"Of course we have the game in our hands twice but the
opponent was stronger than us. They coped better with the pressure of the game.
"Maybe because they were with 10 men we felt even more the
pressure of winning and they had nothing to lose. They were just playing their
game.
We conceded two goals from two set pieces where the organization is clear and it's absolutely decided the players are in the zone. We conceded two goals that are difficult to accept."
When Mourinho was asked about PSG’s style of play,
he said: "They were aggressive the same way
[as in Paris].
"They are what we used to call, in our side of the
continental Europe, they were clever. In England that is not accepted as
clever, intelligent, experienced people.
"I wouldn't say dirty, but this is a great part of the
game."
Mourinho proceeded by saying Laurent Blanc’s men
copped with the pressure despite being a man down and Chelsea didn’t respond
well to having an extra man for the majority of the match.
