Mourinho set his sights on the Premier League title after Chelsea extended
their unbeaten run with a 2-1 win over Liverpool.
Mourinho insists his side's unbeaten run will not last forever but victory
at Anfield has only reinforced their position as title favourites.
Goals from Gary Cahill and Diego Costa, with his 10th of the season, saw the
Stamford Bridge side recover from Emre Can's first goal for the Reds.
It made it 11 games unbeaten from the start of the campaign and consolidated
their position at the top of the table, but Mourinho cannot see his side
emulating Arsenal's 'Invincibles' from 2003-04.
"I think it is possible to be champions - before the season started we
considered ourselves contenders but in modern football, especially in the
Premier League, I don't believe in an unbeaten run," said the Portuguese.
"It is a good start and I believe my team can keep this stability.
"One day we will lose and the next game we will win again and one day we
will play badly because it is the nature of the game but we will recover the
quality of our game.
"I know that the negative moment will arrive, the defeat will arrive, and we
are prepared for that.
"At this moment we are a happy camp. One day the defeat arrives and when it
does we will be the same."
