Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has admitted that he wants Chelsea to overcome Barcelona and progress to the final of Champions League this evening.
The Portuguese coach spent three seasons at Stamford Bridge up until 2007 when he was sacked by owner Roman Abramovich.
However, the 49-year-old has revealed that he still holds the Blues close to his heart.
"If it was Barca versus Milan or Barca versus Arsenal I would not care, but when it's Chelsea or Inter, I can't hide my feelings for my old players and I wish all of them the best of luck," Mourinho told reporters.
