Mourinho enjoys view from the top

jose Mourinho cares little that Chelsea's eight-point advantage over Manchester City has been cut to three at the halfway point of the Premier League season.The Blues have been pace-setters since their opening win at Burnley, with only Thursday's opponents Tottenham temporarily overtaking them on goal difference after two rounds of matches.Now, after playing all the other 19 teams in the Premier League and ahead of the first return fixture of the season on New Year's Day, Mourinho has reflected on a strong start by his Blues.
"Everybody starts with the same points and if we have one more point than them, we did well," Mourinho said.
"We are top of the league at the end of the first round because we deserve it and because it is a consequence of what we did.
"Chelsea is playing very well since the beginning of the season. That's the only thing we work at, the only thing we concentrate on.
"And in the second part of the season we are going to try to do exactly the same thing.
"Against Tottenham, we will be there again trying to get a good result."
