Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini has reportedly rubbished his rival Jose Mourinho's claims that Chelsea are out of the Premier League title chase.

Pellegrini reckons his rival is talking nonsense and said that he does not think that 'important managers' can give any importance to the mind games, which Mourinho is playing.

According to the Daily star, Pellegrini also said that he does not know if people think that managers who seem to play mind games are more intelligent, but he does not feel so.

The City boss further said that it is not his duty to analyse what Mourinho says and insisted that he does not know the way the Chelsea boss thinks.

Pellegrini said that according to his thinking there are four teams, which have the same chances of wining the title as all the rest of the other teams have got six games and 18 points to play for.

Pellegrini said that City have got eight games, as they got two games postponed, and so they have to get the six points, which they do not have already adding that the top four have the same chances.

Mourinho seemingly waved the white flag following Chelsea's shock defeat at Crystal Palace on Saturday and insisted that his side is now out of the running, the report added.
