"At Manchester United, they were a great team over long periods of time, but there were expec-tations and people had seen it before. What is particularly rewarding and more enjoyable here is there has clearly not been a lot of it at Chelsea.

"From that point of view the players appreciate what is going on, the fans appreciate what is going on. Chelsea have massive potential and it has been long overdue to deliver it. And I think that is the difference. But we never expected success so quickly. We said early on that Jose was not about what happened this season, that it was a much longer project than that."
