http://www.chelseafc.com/article.asp?hlid=375702 Jose feeling comfortable at the top Friday, Mar 31, 2006 Jose Mourinho is unconcerned by Man United closing the gap midweek as he prepares for a Birmingham side he believes is stronger than recent results suggest. The Chelsea manager has been giving his considered preview of Saturday lunchtime's game to Chelsea TV. The full interview can be seen on Friday night's Big Match Countdown at 6.30pm. 曼联慢慢逼近，但莫里老大不在乎。 In it, Mourinho reflects on Man United winning their game in hand to cut Chelsea's Premiership lead to nine points. He reckons the pressure remains on the chasers. 和第二名的差距只剩九分了，不过压力还是在追赶者们身上。 “Nine points behind I think is a big gap. If I was in their position, I would be happy with the last couple of months where they are playing good and winning matches but very concerned about the distance. 九分已经很巨大了，虽然他们一直在赢球，但差距还是在那。 “Nine points with seven matches to go. I am not thinking they are very close to us. Of course we have to chase the points we need, we cannot wait for them to drop points. But nine points in the reality of modern football is a big gap.” 剩七场比赛要打，这种差距已经足够，但我们还是要继续赢。 Arjen Robben is available again after suspension, William Gallas has one more game to serve of a three-match ban. Glen Johnson is the only player ruled out through injury after his hernia op. 罗本复出，加拉还要禁赛，小黑动手术。 Birmingham are not so fortunate on the injury front with up to eight players unavailable. Despite having conceded 12 goals and scored none in the last three games that included the 7-0 drubbing by Liverpool and a 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford last Sunday, Mourinho suspects those scores hide a tough challenge at St. Andrew's. 伯明罕伤病缠身，近期表现又差，但回到主场可能会反弹。 “The game against Liverpool happens once in a life. Every shot was a goal and a good goalkeeper was not a lucky man in that game. There were own goals, goals in the first and fifth minute, Liverpool played well yes, but it is something that happens sometimes. 他们输利物浦那种情况可说是百年一遇，怎麽射都进，还有乌龙球。 “I saw the Man United game and I think in the second-half Birmingham played well. They can build from that. The manager is good and the decision from the board to keep him and give him confidence is for me a fantastic one. 他们输给曼联那场的下半场打得不错，可能回稳。 “They are three or four points away from staying in the division and if they can get one point or three points from the game against Chelsea then it will be a big boost for them. So I believe they will play with a great effort and I am not waiting for an easy game.” 他们很想转运。 by Paul Mason -- 以伊露维塔的名为证发誓 — 若有谁敢夺取属於我们的蓝色之魂，不论对方是天使 、恶魔、男人或女人，包括尚未出生者，若有任何的生灵，不论伟大或渺小，是善 还是恶，我们都将怀着复仇与憎恨之心直追到天涯海角，直追到世界结束之日。 --
