Jose Mourinho told he can pick Chelsea kids for Liverpool showdown: Jose Mourinho has been given the go-ahead by Chelsea’s board to pick a second-string team at Liverpool on Sunday, after accepting that the club’s title hopes are over. Mourinho is preparing to carry out his threat to save his remaining fit, first-choice players for the Champions League semi-final second leg at home to Atletico Madrid on Wednesday. The Chelsea manager believes that their Barclays Premier League title chances are over after the 2-1 home defeat by Sunderland on Saturday left his side five points behind leaders Liverpool. Mourinho lost goalkeeper Petr Cech and skipper John Terry to injuries in Tuesday’s first-leg draw at Atletico. It means third-choice keeper Henrique Hilario could start his first Chelsea game in three years to protect 41-year-old keeper Mark Schwarzer. There may also be chances for youngsters such as Tomas Kalas, Nathan Ake and Under 21 defender Andreas Christensen. Mourinho can select any player in their 25-man squad list without fear of sanction; action would likely only be taken if a number of younger players from outside the list are selected.
Mourinho had an extraordinary row over this issue during his time as Real Madrid boss in Spain. In 2010 Mourinho criticised then Sporting Gijon coach Manuel Preciado for making eight changes ahead of a game at Barcelona. Mourinho claimed: ‘You can’t do this in England because you get punished. A team shouldn’t give away a game cheaply.’ Sporting lost 1-0 and Preciado, who has since passed away, was furious with Mourinho over the criticism. He said: ‘If he is saying what he really thinks, he is despicable and a bad professional colleague.’ The Premier League changed their rules over playing weakened sides in 2011 when Blackpool made representation to the other 19 clubs after they were fined for fielding an under-strength team at Aston Villa.Rule L19 remains in the Premier League handbook, saying: ‘In every league match each participating club shall field a full-strength team.’ But this is open to interpretation because clubs must register a 25- man squad at the start of the season — and they can now also call on players from the Under 21 development squad. Former Sheffield United boss Neil Warnock still complains about Rafa Benitez fielding a weakened Liverpool team against Fulham ahead of the 2007 Champions League final with Milan. Warnock also claims Sir Alex Ferguson did the same on the final day of the season when Manchester United lost to West Ham and his side were relegated.

@Karikamuri Shanmugan
whatever be Chelsea's sole concentration will be on reaching the Champions League final , they are still third favorites to win the title ...even if If Chelsea wins there is a chance for City rather than Chelsea ..so why take unnecessary risk ..it's commonsense and can't blame them

..and Liverpool's 23m£ signing is Up against Kalas 5.2m£ ...Liverpool will utilize that weak link

as per that logic 35m£ signing Carroll should be better than anyone in the current Liverpool squad and that includes Luis Suarez
