J. Mourinho: I cannot promise a top four finish

After a very poor start to the season, London's "Chelsea" manager Jose Mourinho admitted that he is not sure if the team will play in the UEFA Champions League next season.

The defeat to "Stoke City" in the "Capital One" Cup tournament only increased the pressure on the Portuguese, whose players are currently only in the second part of the "Premier" league table.

Before another tough match against "Liverpool," the coach said that this year the team may not reach the top four.

"I cannot promise that," Mourinho replied during a press conference.

Portuguese refused to comment on his relationship with "Chelsea" owner Roman Abramovich - specifically, the manager was asked if he had recently had any communication with him.

"I don't have to tell you," said the boss of the "aristocrats".
