LONDON (Reuters) - Jose Mourinho said it is memories rather than medals that motivate him as his Chelsea side sit on the brink of a first Premier League title for five years.

Victory against Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge on Sunday will secure Chelsea's first title since 2011 and Mourinho's third after triumphs in 2005 and 2006 -- but the 52-year-old said the imminent arrival of a 22nd trophy as manager does not drive him.
