Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has hailed Manchester United wonder-kid Adnan Januzaj and admits he is desperate for the Blues to start producing their own academy stars.

Januzaj will line-up against Mourinho’s men this afternoon when United travel to Stamford Bridge for the biggest match of the Premier League weekend.


Chelsea need a win to keep pace with Arsenal and Manchester City at the top of the table, while United are just desperate for points as they cling on to the coat tails of the top four.

While the Blues are enjoying a far better season than David Moyes’ team, Mourinho admits he is still envious of his rivals to have a young player like Januzaj on their books.
