Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho was at a press conference today's morning where he said 'Manager of the reason' award given to him is for everyone at the club.
He also used the opportunity to pay tribute to Chelsea legend Frank Lampard who will be leaving Premiership at the end of the season.
‘'In the same way I said a few words about Steven Gerrard, I have to do the same, with even more emotion, about Frank Lampard, who is also playing his last match in the Premier League".
‘'He is one of my best players ever, best professionals ever, a Chelsea legend and a legend in the Premier League. It’s the last match for Frank and obviously I have to honour him and wish him the best in the States. I hope he will be back in England as soon as possible because people like him make this country much better, he’s a big loss for English football.’'
Speaking on being named Manager of the Season,he said:
'‘I was not waiting for it, I was never Manager of the Month, but I’m happy with it."
‘'It’s a club trophy, not an individual one. It’s for me, my assistants, my players, everybody who works with me.''
‘'It’s something you don’t just get by yourself.It’s the icing on the cake but I work for the cake. The Premier League is the real cake but obviously to be the Manager of the Season is nice.’'
The Happy One also wants to break Manchester United record of least number of losses in EPL on Sunday.
‘'Maybe it will help me to motivate the troops because it’s hard."
‘'The education I give to these guys and the way they grow up is by doing anything to try to reach an objective. Keep the focus in training,keep the motivation in every match, it doesn’t matter about the opponent, whether it’s a big opponent or a small one. Play with the same intensity and desire."
'‘So when you reach your objective it’s hard to keep them at this level.They are competitive animals. It’s like the predators when they hunt, afterwards they relax a bit. It’s the last match at home, a place where normally we get positive results, a big day for us with getting our hands on the trophy, so the guys will try everything to win the match.’'
After failing to lift the EPL trophy last season,the Special one gave Chelsea supporters the much needed relief by winning Premiership title this season.
