Jose Mourinho - "Chelsea MUST adapt"
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that his team must adapt to Stoke City's style of play to give themselves the best chance of victory on Monday night.
Mourinho takes the West London outfit to the Britannia Stadium having witnessed them suffer a 3-2 defeat in the Potteries last season, but Mourinho is hopeful that his side have learned from their previous mistakes against Mark Hughes's team.
The 51-year-old told reporters: "Sometimes you play well and lose - other times you don't play so well and win. Last season we played well against Stoke but made two mistakes that cost us the game.
"We might be getting results but we have to go there and play our game. We know their qualities and will have to adapt to it.
"If you know you will play against Peter Crouch and their defenders and you don't adapt, you are in trouble. They are a good and difficult side."
Chelsea start the weekend three points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table.
