Juan Mata sends message of support to Chelsea

Manchester United playmaker Juan Mata has wished Jose Mourinho all the best at Chelsea after being asked about the potential sacking of the Chelsea Manager.

Talking to Spanish press AS, the Spaniard said he holds no grudge against his ex-boss, after being exiled from Chelsea in January 2014.

"I always will wish him the best because I am extremely grateful for the time I spent there and nothing else, “he said

After Saturday's 3-1 defeat at home to Southampton, Mourinho openly discussed the risk of dismissal, but said that he had no intention of walking away from the club.

The Blues, meanwhile, have made an official statement expressing "full support" for their manager, despite Chelsea securing just eight points from their first eight Premier League games.

Chelsea are currently two places above the Premier League relegation zone after losing four and winning only two of their first eight league games -- their worst start to a season in 37 years.
