		</div><p>Jose Mourinho has warned Chelsea&#8217;s performances will not be pretty as he seeks to move on from the tumultuous start to the season.</p>
<p>Two weeks after a loss to Southampton prompted a vote of confidence in the manager &#8211; the first of Roman Abramovich&#8217;s 12-year ownership &#8211; the Premier League champions beat Aston Villa 2-0 at Stamford Bridge.</p>
<p>Mourinho dropped Eden Hazard to the substitutes&#8217; bench and afterwards encouraged the playmaker to improve his work-rate as the Blues boss opted for a more pragmatic approach.</p>
<p>&#8220;In this moment it&#8217;s difficult to be brilliant before we have points,&#8221; Mourinho told Chelsea TV.</p>
<p>&#8220;What produces results is both quality, plus the other things.</p>
<p>&#8220;When you are not able to show your quality, you have always to be able to show the other things.</p>
<p>&#8220;In between quality in some moments and fantastic work by the team and the fantastic desire to win the game, the performance was solid, not brilliant.</p>
<p>&#8220;They wanted to win, they wanted to show that they wanted to win, they wanted to show they are together and ready to fight.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m really happy because it was two long weeks after the last defeat.&#8221;</p>
<p>Chelsea next play Dynamo Kiev in Champions League Group G on Tuesday, with Mourinho planning to retain the same approach.</p>
<p>&#8220;In this moment we are losing 24 hours to Dynamo, like we did against Porto,&#8221; the Portuguese added.</p>
<p>&#8220;Porto played Friday, Dynamo played Friday. We played in Newcastle on Saturday (prior to Porto); we played again on Saturday.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are losing 24 hours. We have to try to recover that with other ingredients and the ingredients will be the same &#8211; fantastic spirit. Let&#8217;s start from that point.&#8221;</p>
<p>Villa have now lost seven of their nine Premier League matches this season.</p>
<p>Manager Tim Sherwood, though, saw reasons to be positive following the performance at Stamford Bridge, where a poor Brad Guzan clearance led to Diego Costa&#8217;s opener and Alan Hutton deflected the ball in for Chelsea&#8217;s second.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was encouraging at points in the game,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;We dominated the game in the first period without opening them up too many times. We have had a few chances.</p>
<p>&#8220;They have had none except the one we gifted them. It was an uphill struggle after that.</p>
<p>&#8220;There were positives. We have come to the Bridge and matched them. We haven&#8217;t sat back and tried to dig in and nick something.</p>
<p>&#8220;Unfortunately we didn&#8217;t have that cutting edge which you&#8217;re going to need to win football matches.</p>
<p>&#8220;But it&#8217;s onwards and upwards now.&#8221;</p>
