Adrian is planning more heroics on Wednesday to frustrate Jose Mourinho once again.

The West Ham goalkeeper has been the scourge of the Special One both in Spain and England.

Spanish stopper Adrian, 28, helped Real Betis beat Mourinho’s Real Madrid 1-0 in November 2012.

And he kept Chelsea at bay to help the Hammers earn a 0-0 Stamford Bridge draw last season in the game Mourinho unforgettably accused Sam Allardyce’s side of playing 19th century football.

West Ham welcome Mourinho’s newly crowned Capital One Cup winners to Upton Park on Wednesday night and Adrian said: “I don’t know if Mourinho will remember me but when I play against him I get good results and feel good.

In pictures - West Ham 1-3 Crystal Palace:

“A win with Real Betis and a 0-0 draw at Stamford Bridge last season. With Betis we won the game 1-0 and, personally, I was man of the match. I was very happy.

“In these games the keeper is busy because they have good players. You always have to make good saves to keep the team in the game and I hope Wednesday will be a good game for me and the team.

“I try every time to keep a clean sheet, sometimes it is impossible but I play all games at 100 per cent. We hope that we can get a good result.”

West Ham need to bounce back against London rivals Chelsea after their disappointing 3-1 defeat to Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Adrian added: “It is a big game for the fans and the club. We need to get the three points because we want to stay in a good position.

“It will be a tough game – if we play well and show the performance like we did against Liverpool, Man United and Man City we can get the points.”
