Mata warns Chelsea ahead of Tottenham test

Chelsea midfielder Juan Mata has warned his club team mates not to expect an easy ride when Tottenham visit Stamford Bridge for this weekend's crucial Premier League tie. Tottenham have slipped to 4th in the league and seen their biggest rivals Arsenal leapfrog them into 3rd.

But Spanish international midfielder Mata has warned his team mates that Spurs are still a huge threat and the Blues must be cautious.


"It’s going to be very difficult. Tottenham have a great squad and a great manager who has lots of experience in the Premier League", Mata told Chelsea’s official site.


"They are in front of us in the league for a reason, because up to now they have been better.


"Tottenham are a very complete team. We have to be aware of their attackers like [Gareth] Bale and [Luka] Modric.


"These are players who are very dangerous."
