Chelsea can't afford any more slip ups, says Courtois
Posted Monday, December 08, 2014 by Talksport.co.uk
Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has warned his team-mates they can ill afford to slip up like they did against Newcastle on Saturday, if the Blues are to clinch their first Premier League title since 2010.
Jose Mourinho’s side suffered their first defeat in 23 matches after Pappis Cisse’s double claimed a 2-1 win for the Magpies.
And the 22-year-old shot-stopper said those are the matches the Blues must win this season, but has backed his side to respond in a positive manner.
'We are still [Premier League] leaders and from the next game on, we will fight to keep that bonus up and make the gap bigger,' said Courtois.
"There are only difficult games in the Premier League and we know that. The next game is in the Champions League at home and then against Hull, we have to win in front of our fans."
The Belgium international added: "It was a hard game, but we have to stay positive. We are still leaders, but we know these games to be champions you have to win, so from the next game on, we will try our best to win all the games if possible."
