Mourinho compares present Chelsea Aquad with 2004/5 Team - Wat you think?

 Jose Mourinho claims his current Chelsea team are nearing the heights reached by his record-breaking 2004-5 side.

It was a decade ago that Chelsea secured their first league title in 50 years with a record 95 points before going on to defend their crown the following season.

Mourinho's current crop of players are once again setting the pace at the top of the Premier League table and look every inch as dangerous as the 2004-5 vintage, with seven wins from eight games so far.

 While he insisted there was still a long way to go this season, Mourinho claimed he could see signs of title-winning form after their 2-1 victory away to Crystal Palace on Saturday - a fixture that ended in defeat and Mourinho conceding the title last season.

"We are reaching that level," Mourinho said. "My first spell here we had already in the team players with great maturity, great knowledge, great stability. Last year my team was naive, couldn't cope with certain moments of the game, so we work, we work, we work and in this moment I'm happy.

"We are not a perfect team - a long way to go - but in many aspects our team is a better team than last year."
