Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has called on his players to win the Premiership as soon as possible, so they can concentrate on the Champions League.
Victory against Arsenal on Wednesday would leave Chelsea needing two points to seal their first title in 50 years.

Mourinho wants his players focused on the Champions League semi-final first leg against Liverpool on 27 April.

"I'd like to win it as soon as possible so I could rest players. We've had 54 games in four competitions," he said.

Looks like he is going to get it. Wouldn't be surprised Spurs will hand it to him by getting at least a point from Arsenal.

He is going to have to wait a few more days:

Arsenal 1-0 Tottenham

Jose Antonio Reyes gave Arsenal all three points in the north London derby.
The Spaniard struck midway through the first half when he was played in by Cesc Fabregas on the left and unleashed an unstoppable shot past Paul Robinson.

Patrick Vieira and Philippe Senderos went close with headers and Edu hit the post, while Jens Lehmann made a sharp stop to deny Tottenham's Jermain Defoe.

Spurs substitute Robbie Keane headed wide late on, ensuring Chelsea must wait until Saturday to win the title.

Arsenal are now 11 points behind the champions-elect and all eyes will be on the Blues at Bolton when a win will hand them the Premiership crown.
