Chelsea
manager Jose Mourinho, walked out of his press conference ahead of
their Champions League clash against Steaua Bucharest, after he was
questioned about Kevin de Bruyne’s absence from the squad.
When he was asked about the Belgian’s omission, he replied: “This is
fantastic because no one asks me about [Juan] Mata. You have spoken
about Mata for three weeks. Now you’re asking about Kevin.
“You are impressed in the players who are not playing. He was not
selected. It was my decision. Only 11 can play and I tried to decide, by
what they do on the pitch when they play and in training …
“This fellow knows me for nine years and that I make mistakes, but I
try to be honest all the time. I was honest with Juan because of what
he’s done in training and what he’s done in the game he played, and so
he plays. With Kevin I didn’t like the match he played against Swindon,
and I didn’t like the way he was training. But you only ask about the
guys who were not selected. Thank you.”
