“I’m not in hell, I’m not in heaven” Mourinho left in purgatory after Chelsea win

Chelsea put recent poor displays in the Premier League behind them in what was a comfortable 4-0 win over Maccabi in their opening Champions League group match.

Goals from Willian, Oscar, Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas made for a pretty one sided affair at Stamford Bridge. However, speaking after the game, a pragmatic Jose Mourinho with his fate still in the hands of the man upstairs shrugged: “I was not in hell with bad results, and I am not now in heaven because we won.”

Mourinho’s fate might become clearer when Chelsea play Arsenal on the weekend.
