Jose Mourinho says he will be supporting his "Chelsea heroes" against Bayern Munich in the Champions League final. The Real Madrid manager also rounded on critics of Chelsea's tactics, telling them: you know nothing.
"John (Terry) is missing but Chelsea are there (in the final) and that is the most important thing," he said. "I just hope it is a good final and of course I want the Blues to win, even though I have a lot of respect for the reds. I have a blue rib, still. Inter and Chelsea mean a lot to me."
"I think Chelsea's boys were heroes (against Barcelona), absolute heroes. Some people think they are the masters of the game and they will criticise Chelsea in the same way that they criticised Inter two years ago, but they know nothing. Nothing.
"They know nothing about character and personality. They know nothing about the effort or what it is to resist physically, emotionally and technically, with 10 men. They know nothing about organisation."
