What Jose and Courtois said in CL press conference.

Jose: 'Sir Alex is my friend and his words are nice words. He is always honest with his analysis and I thank him.'

Jose: 'Falcao is not fit, he just had a period with us (today), he's still a couple of weeks away. JT and Ramires look fine.'

Jose says the team have not lacked leadership on the pitch this season.

Jose: 'It's a group phase match which the group has transformed into a knockout match.'

Jose: 'It's clear we're creating lots of chances and not scoring goals. We are having many situations where it just needs a tap-in.'

Jose: 'We want to play in the Champions League, against the best teams, Barcelona, Real, Bayern. To do that we must win tomorrow.'

Jose: 'I think I've done enough good things at the club for the owner to know the quality I have.'

Jose: 'As a manger this period makes me better because it's the first time for me, a new experience.'

Jose: 'After a defeat I wake up the next morning with even more desire to go and work. I've found myself to be really strong.'

Jose: 'I'm actually not so concerned about Porto, under these circumstances I need to focus fully on my own squad.'

Jose: 'At the moment we're taking this as just one match and we need to win it.'

Jose: 'I think we are slight favourites because we were already prepared for reaching the game in this situation.'

Courtois says being out for so long was difficult .And he emphasises that one player returning to the team does not solve the problems.

Courtois says there is plenty of confidence in the team that they will get the win needed tomorrow.

Courtois says the results do not mean the players are not committed to the manager. He says they are all together as one team.

Courtois says at the moment Hazard is not scoring for Chelsea but once a goal comes, he will score a lot more.

Courtois says he has a very good and professional relationship with the manager. He does not know why the press misreport this.

Courtois says the players are trying to work the same way as last season when they were champions, but that they need to get better.

Courtois says the team have to play to win tomorrow and not play for a draw. He says they have to give the fans a win.

Courtois says Mourinho is managing the team with the same spirit and training, and they are confident of changing the results.
