Meanwhile, Blues boss Jose Mourinho has admitted he hopes Manchester United hero Gary Neville succeeds after taking charge at struggling Valencia.
“I just wish him well,” he said. “He was a very good player and a very good pundit. Now he must prove he can be a very good manager, which is a completely different job.”
