FIVES THINGS MORINHO NEED TO DO TO GET BACK ON TRACK

Are the wheels falling off at Chelsea? Jose Mourinho's side haven't won a football match since their post-season tour clash against Sydney FC on June 2.

Their winless pre-season raised a few eyebrows. Their toothless Community Shield defeat to Arsenal raised the alarm bells.

You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to work out Chelsea Football Club isn't a happy ship at the moment. 
Mourinho hasn't been his usual charming self this summer, it's certainly not gone unnoticed by the players. Something is troubling him, and he's making sure those around him know about it. 
All that has made for what some have described as an 'edgy' atmosphere at the club's Cobham HQ.
