The Chelsea boss confirmed his squad need to rejuvenate for the Christmas season. The Group G winner and Premier league leader who finally lost their unbeaten run to Newscastle on Saturday rested the trio stars from Tuesday's training in preparation for their next clash. The trio will return to feature in Saturday's match against Hull City. Mourinho, who has guided his team to victory in 24 games this season, admitted he wished to give time-off to the entire squad but the Blues still have more face-offs this December.
