Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has revealed his dissatisfaction with the number of goals his strikers have scored in the Premier League this season.

Chelsea have found goals hard to come by up front, but contributions from midfield have helped the London club into joint-second position in the league table.

"The number of goals in the Premier League is not the number I want and they want," said Mourinho, according to talkSPORT.

"This is something very, very obvious, between them they have four goals.

"Strikers do help the team in other ways, no doubt, but the number of goals they are scoring is not enough to make me happy and to make them happy."

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has reportedly refused to give Mourinho money to buy a striker in the January transfer window.
