The Portuguese admits that he may need to rethink his side's playing style after, once again, they dominated proceedings at the Stadium of Light yet ended up losing
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho admits that he may need to revisit his side's approach to matches after they were dumped out of the Capital One Cup by Sunderland.
The Blues were largely in control of their quarter-final tie on Tuesday but could not build on Lee Cattermole's own goal despite numerous chances falling to the likes of Samuel Eto'o and Demba Ba.
Mourinho's men were then made to pay as Fabio Borini levelled the tie deep into the second half before fellow substitute Ki Sung-Yueng popped up to send the Black Cats into the semi-finals just before penalties.
"Maybe the way to rectify it is not to concede goals, maybe the way is to have a different approach," the 50-year-old told the press after the match.
"When you are a very offensive team and you don't score enough goals to win matches, maybe the right approach is to be more defensive, concede less goals and win matches with the few goals we score.
