Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho 'calm' over Wayne Rooney pursuit insisting he has great striking options Chelsea are Manchester United's opponents for David Moyes's first home game as manager, meaning that any Rooney deal is unlikely to be concluded before that fixture on Aug 26. With Chelsea's match against Aston Villa having been brought forward to Aug 21, Mourinho's team will also now go into that Manchester United game having played twice in the opening seven days of the season. Although the scheduling will give United fully four extra days to prepare for that match, Chelsea will have had the chance to establish an immediate lead at the top of the Premier League. The Villa match has been moved because it originally clashed with the weekend of Chelsea's European Super Cup fixture against Bayern Munich on Aug 30. "It is a difficult week of three matches in a row which is never easy, especially at the start of the season but I think it is fair," said Mourinho. It would not have been fair to play this game one month or two months later. It is logical to play it at the start of the season, even though it is difficult for us and Villa. Chelsea completed their pre-season tour of Asia on Thursday night with an 8-1 win over the Indonesia All-Stars, with John Terry starting his third successive match and scoring as well as winning a penalty. With Terry being regularly dropped last season by Rafael Benítez, the captain has made a very positive impression so far this summer. "He played well, trained very well and never missed one minute of any training session," said Mourinho. That is very important because he is a very important player for us. He has trained very hard for 15 days and most of the days with two sessions so that is more than three hours of training a day. Then he played well for us in all three matches. I am very happy with him. Mourinho was also enthused by some of his younger players on Thursday, with 17-year-old triallist Bertrand Traore scoring the best of the goals. Nathanial Chalobah also impressed in an unfamiliar holding midfield role. Lukaku and Ramires scored twice each, with Eden Hazard and Ba joining Traore and Terry in also scoring for Chelsea. Frank Lampard was again rested as a precaution because of an Achilles tendon injury but will travel to the United States next week when Chelsea continue their preparations in the Champions Cup tournament that will also include Real Madrid. Torres, Juan Mata, Oscar, David Luiz, John-Obi Mikel and Cesar Azpilicueta will also begin pre-season training on Monday after being excused the trip to Asia because of their involvement in the Confederations Cup.
