Mourinho fears 'shark' in the knockout stages





Mourinho fears there are a few "sharks in the ocean" to nibble his side in the knockout stages. The Blues, who qualified for the last 16 following a 3-1 butt-whooping of Sporting Lisbon on Wednesday, have four wins in six matches. Mourinho expects a tougher challenge in the last 16 draw stating "the Champions league starts now". The Blues will likely be paired against Bayer Leverkusen, PSG, Juventus, Shakhtar Donetsk, or Basel in Monday's draw. Mourinho's side, who emerged top in their group with 17 goals, avoided fellow qualifiers Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. Chelsea boss said his side fears nobody but looks forward to clashing with strong teams in the competition.

Headmaster Pep Guardiola injects new rules into City camp; bans mobile phones

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.
