Fernando Torres celebrated his 100th Chelsea start with a win double at Schalke on Tuesday night.
Goals in each half from the Spaniard helped the Blues secure their second away victory in the Champions League this season - and took them to the top of Group E.
The £50m striker has now found the net 39 times for the Stamford Bridge club - and four times this season in cup competitions.
Jose Mourinho said: “His form is a boost for the team, for sure. And that’s the most important thing. I think what will boost him is the confidence I have in him. I had faith in him and he did well.
"It’s good for him to score goals in the Champions League, so I think it’s good. He must be happy now.”
Torres, who returned on Saturday from a knee injury, added: “The last few games I feel very sharp and well. We have many games and we need to be ready, every one of us.
“I think we are still to improve. The first half was 50/50 and we were lucky to score. But in the second half the individual quality made the difference.”
