Jose Mourinho: 'Second half one of our best'

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho believes that his side produced one of their best performances of the season in the second half of their 3-1 win over Fulham.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho believes that his side produced one of their best performance of the season in the second half of their 3-1 win over Fulham at Craven Cottage.

The match was goalless at half time, but after the break the Blues came out firing, with Andre Schurrle scoring a hat-trick inside 20 minutes to hand his side a vital win in the race for the Premier League title.

Mourinho told BBC Sport: "At half time, I told them nothing - nothing - not a word. I walked in, then I walked out. I don't know if anyone else gave a team talk. I was not inside the dressing room. The second half was a great reaction to the worst performance of the season.

"The second half was one of the best performances of the season. We moved the ball around well. If I could've made 11 changes, I might have done, but I could only make three - so I did nothing.

"Schurrle is cold in front of the goal. We have have four points more than Arsenal. The gap to Man City is a fake advantage. If they win their games in hand, they're top of the league. We're behind them."

Chelsea now hold a four-point lead over second-place Arsenal, while Manchester City in third trail by six points and have two games in hand over the Blues.
