Jose Mourinho insists that Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is "very happy" with the team's surge to the Premier League title, despite the club being labelled 'boring'.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that owner Roman Abramovich is "very happy" with what the team are producing on the field.

The Blues have been accused of being 'boring' due to their gritty brand of football, but they are just two wins away from sealing the Premier League title.

The club's owner tends to stay away from the spotlight, but Mourinho has revealed that the Russian billionaire congratulated all of the players at the Emirates following Chelsea's goalless draw with Arsenal last weekend.

"He's very happy," the Daily Star quotes Mourinho as saying. "I saw him hugging the players in the dressing room after the game.

"He can be in Russia and live the game the same way he lives it in a box at Stamford Bridge, but yes, I think he's happy and I think every Chelsea fan is happy if we win the title."

The West London outfit, who have a 10-point lead at the top of the table, will play Leicester City and Crystal Palace in their next two games.
