Jose Mourinho: 'We could have scored six against Swansea City'

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho believes that his side could have scored six goals in their Diego Costa-inspired win over Swansea City at Stamford Bridge.

Jose Mourinho has claimed that Chelsea could have scored five or six goals in their win over Swansea City in the Premier League this afternoon.

A John Terry own goal gave the Welsh side the lead at Stamford Bridge, but a Diego Costa hat-trick led the Blues to a 4-2 victory.

The manager told BBC Sport: "Diego Costa is one of the best strikers we have at this moment in football. The team is an attacking team that creates a lot, creates spaces for a striker. The second goal is a brilliant collective action and Cesc Fabregas had a fantastic assist.

"We were too comfortable in the first half, not creating super dangerous situations. In the second half we started pressing them very well, did not give them time to play, started creating and playing more attacking football. It could have been five or six."

The result leaves Chelsea at the top of the Premier League table with maximum points.
