Jose Mourinho claims he will not show maximum respect to the FA Cup because
of Chelsea's hectic fixture schedule.
The Blues manager is more concerned with plotting Barcelona's downfall in
the UEFA Champions League and hinted he will play a shadow side against
Newcastle United on Sunday.
The revelation could boost a Magpies side chasing a glorious finale for
star striker Alan Shearer, who scored in the 2-1 victory against Heerenveen
in the Uefa Cup on Thursday night.
"The most important trophy we can win is the league - The Premiership,"
Mourinho told As.
"The title is the one we most desire and Roman Abramovich knows this.
"In order to win the Champions League, it is necessary to have some luck,
like I had myself in Manchester [last season, when Porto won with an
injury time goal].
"And the Cup arrives - we wait for Newcastle. Perhaps we will lose in
Newcastle.
"I will go with the second team.
"I do not have supermen.
"I do not respect the FA Cup because in England there is no respect for
Chelsea, they don't value us. We do not get the same rest between games
that Manchester and Arsenal enjoy."
Chelsea are already in the Carling Cup final after winning on Tyneside en
route to Cardiff, and they have always not ruled out the prospect of pulling
off an unprecedented Quadruple.
