Jose mourinho has ruled out a January spending spree at Chelsea and will keep faith with his current crop of players.
Chelsea's push for the title suffered a setback at the weekend as they lost 3-2 at Sunderland and there were suggestions that Mourinho would demand some new players in January with a striker top of his wanted list.
The Blues boss admits a striker in double figures would be a huge boost but has dismissed claims that his current crop will.be axed and new players brought in.
"If we had eight-10-12 goals [from the strikers] we would be top of the league," he admitted. "That's a reality but my strikers give everything and the team works hard. What can you do more? We work, we keep working. That's the only way I know is to keep working.
"Of course we want the best possible results, but I am not waiting for players, I am not asking for players. This is a period for the club and this is a period of my team where we have to try and improve the players we have and try to build a future.
"It is my squad. For good and for bad it is my squad. Of course it is not the perfect squad, but it is my squad and I work with them until the last day. To criticise does not help me. What do I win by criticising my players? I win nothing."
