Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho dismisses Lionel Messi's transfer to the Blues for 200-million pounds. The 27-year-old was the point of discussion on Thursday, where the media claimed Messi's unhappiness at Barcelona may be responsible for the intended move to Chelsea.

It was reported that Messi ok-ed the transfer over a phone talk with Mourinho. The Argentine's decision is said to be necessitated by a feeling of desertion and the need for change of environment, and a connection with his friend, Cesc Fabregas.

Speaking at a news conference, Mourinho botched the transfer idea: "My reaction is that your world changed so much that our world also changed so much. And I think, in this moment, it's so easy, so easy to have non-truths circulating. It's so easy that some people put news without confirming or speaks about rumours. Obviously it's not true. Obviously it's not true."

It's safe to say Pep is a perfectionist and also a headmaster, lol. But seriously, Pep has no intentions to drop his standards after a record-breaking 2017/18 season. He doesn't plan to chart a course like his colleague Ranieri of Leicester City did. Pep recently banned the use of mobile phones, and he also banned lateness to training. Every violation comes with a corresponding fine, ask Benjamin Mendy. Pep plans to repeat his outstanding triumph like he did last season.
