Thibaut Courtois denies that the Blues are getting too concerned about the magnificent victory streak that the Spurs are having in the Premiership at the moment.
The Spurs have not tasted any defeat in the last 9 weeks and have managed to lessen the points’ difference between them and Chelsea which is the topmost team in the Premiership at this juncture.
Courtois says that he and his teammates prefer to think about themselves rather than thinking about their rivals. They would surely be happy if Tottenham fails to fetch points, but, that’s not something they have in their head all the time.
The 24-year old Belgian native, who is the top pick to stand between the sticks for Chelsea, believes that after the Red Devils defeat, the next couple of matches were vital because his team wasn’t in a position to give away any further points.
As per Courtois, people would have suspected that the points might be taken from Chelsea again because the Saints and the Toffees, both were quality oppositions and the match against the Toffees was at Goodison Park which had been proving to be a bit of a fortress for them this season.
But, Chelsea showed great character and put on back to back clinical performances in both those matches to add 6 points to their tally and get their campaign back on course again.
In the view of Courtois Fifa Golden, the fate of Chelsea is in its own control now. If from here on, they make sure that they emerge victorious in the rest of the matches that they play at Stamford Bridge and don’t drop too many points when they travel away, they should be fine with regard to their place at the top of the standings.
