Chelsea's Jose Mourinho plays down toughness of Manchester City test

By , Staff Reporter
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho plays down suggestions that taking on Manchester City is the club's biggest test of the season so far.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has claimed that facing Manchester City is no different than facing any other Premier League club.

The Blues will take on the former English champions at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, with just one point separating the clubs in the league table.

"We have tests every week," Mourinho said in a press conference. "It's a big team, a very good team but every game in the Premier League is a test."

Mourinho has confirmed that Ashley Cole is available for the encounter following three weeks on the sidelines with a rib injury.
