2: Jose’s cautious approach:
Mourinho believes in shoring up the defense first before thinking about the attack which can work against the team, it happened against Aston Villa, Crystal Palace and Stoke City last year and with the London giants losing to all three clubs away. Sunderland even broke Jose’s infamous Stamford Bridge unbeaten record with a win. It probably was Chelsea’s title to lose last season as well and they did lose it due to some dire performances at the lesser bankrolled teams, that could easily happen this year as well.
