Cech issues Chelsea warning

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has warned the rest of the Premiership that the Blues are the team to fear now, as they have only lost 2 games in 28 under Avram Grant and still are in the hunt for major honours this season.

"Chelsea are the team to fear now," said the Czech Republic international.

"With everything that has happened this season, we have got through with great character and hope we can keep going like that right until the end. Winning all four competitions is possible.

"We have people missing at the Africa Cup of Nations, important players are injured and we are using all the squad.

"It is great to know that everyone here has the quality and that we can keep playing well and winning.

"Imagine when everyone comes back. We will be stronger again and able to rotate and rest players.

"We are really looking forward to the next part of the season."
