Luis Garcia is out to prove Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho wrong and help Liverpool to mount a serious title challenge this season.
In the aftermath of Liverpool’s well deserved defeat of Chelsea in last season’s FA Cup semi-final defeat, the ungracious Mourinho refused to shake Rafa’s hand and then claimed that The Reds could not compete with Chelsea in The Premiership.
Garcia has proven to be a thorn in Chelsea’s side in the past and aim’s to be one again this season. He remember’s Jose’s word’s but is unfazed by them and feel’s confident that The Red’s will prove him wrong.
‘Jose Mourinho said after we beat them in the FA Cup semi-final that we have no chance this season,’ Garcia told Sky Magazine.
‘We know what Mourinho is like. He enjoys provoking others to motivate his own players, but he’s a great coach who is doing good work in London.
‘All I can say is that I hope his predictions for next season are wrong and that Liverpool will be champions.’
‘Why shouldn’t we believe we can catch Chelsea and win the Premiership title this season?
‘We beat them in two semi-finals and that wasn’t down to luck.
‘Last season we recognised that Chelsea had the strongest, most consistent team and were worthy champions.
‘But in each of my first two years at Liverpool I have won a trophy – the Champions League and the FA Cup.
‘This year I would like the league title.’
