Jose Mourinho praised his Brazilian contingent ahead of Chelsea’s massive game against Paris Saint-Germain tonight.

When asked about Thiago Silva and David Luiz in the PSG line up, Mourinho was quick with his reply.

“I have four Brazilians on my team and you ask me about Thiago Silva and David Luiz? Chelsea play Willian, Oscar, Ramires and Filipe Luis, and only these four make up almost 50% of the Brazilian team.”

Mourinho also confirmed Diego Costa will start despite not playing for three weeks through suspension.

“He will start, yes, but I do not think that it is good for a player to stand still for three weeks or three games without acting. So I do not think he is at the top of his fitness.”
