Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho believes every team wants to be like his.

The Blues maintained their dominance on the rest of the Premier League sides by winning 3-1 at Leicester City on Wednesday night to increase their lead to 13 points.

The west Londoners have been at the summit of the league table since the opening weekend of the season when they beat Burnley 3-1 away and will make sure of their status with a win against Crystal Palace at home on Sunday.

"It is phenomenal what the team are doing. Being top of the league since day one is not easy," Mourinho told Sky Sports.

"Today, we played against a team on a great run, who have won 12 points out of 12, playing at home with lots of confidence, then we go a goal down.

"To come back in the second half the way my boys did it is fantastic.

"My experience in football is just worry about my feelings. I know what I feel in relation to the work we have been doing in the last two years.

"I don't need other people to recognise what we are, I know what we are.

"In a very pragmatic way, we are what every team wants to be.

"It is also stylish to defend well against a dangerous team like they [Leicester] are.

"We coped magnificently well with them."

Chelsea will clinch the title with a winning result over the visiting Eagles this weekend which will be their fourth triumph in the Premier League era and fifth first division premiership overall.
