Paris Saint-Germain defender David Luiz has insisted that Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho 'is not special' ahead of the second leg of their last-16 tie in the Champions League.

The former Blues defender acknowledges his old side's achievements so far this season but believes that there is nothing special about "the Special One".

"He is special for you, not for me," Luiz said, according to Goal.com.

"I had some great moments at Chelsea and won a lot of titles. I was very happy. They are having a great season, defend well and have great players but above all I know my team. We will try to score there and play like we know how.

"We will have a good game plan and implement it the best way possible to achieve a great performance. Both can still qualify."

The West London club host the reigning Ligue 1 champions at Stamford Bridge this Wednesday, with Mourinho's side claiming the slight advantage with their away goal.
