Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is proud of his squad for the way they have handled an injury-plagued season.
"We have never played with our best team, never - all this season, we've never played with our best team," he said. "But when we play with a team similar to our best team, we show what we can do.
"In December and January, I almost played centre-back. Those months reflect the points we lost. We had two matches, we conceded four goals and we lost points against Fulham and Reading. We go to Liverpool and within five minutes the game was over - no Ricardo [Carvalho], no John Terry, nobody. I think the season is a brilliant season by these boys, we just need to win more trophies."
