Jose Mourinho: 'Few managers can match my success'

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho believes that only a few managers in the world can match what he has achieved in his managerial career.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho feels that there are few managers in the world that can match his achievements in the game.

The Portuguese has won league titles with the Blues, Inter Milan, Real Madrid and Porto in his distinguished career.

Mourinho also guided Inter and Porto to glory in the Champions League, but has yet to match that accomplishment in five seasons with Chelsea, following their midweek exit from the competition at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain.

However, the 52-year-old has revealed that he is more than happy with his record in the game compared to those around him in the Premier League.

"My happiness, first of all, is when I compare myself with others. I see just a few that are with me in terms of success and the others I see a huge difference and a huge distance," Mourinho told reporters.

"I have lots of respect for all of them but, in the Premier League, who is European champion? Me and Louis van Gaal. How many won the Premier League twice or more than twice? Me and Arsene Wenger.

"How many won every competition in this country? Community Shield, Capital One Cup, FA Cup, Premier League? In Europe, how many won seven league titles? How many won two Champions Leagues? Carlo Ancelotti won three and Van Gaal and Pep Guardiola won two.

"I'm not content with that but I think people worry about me too much. They don't know what my happiness is. What makes me feel special is that I am above all of this. You think I care about some bull**** I read? I don't care."

Chelsea have the chance to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table to eight points when they play Southampton later today.
