Chelsea keeper Cech expecting tense league finish with Man Utd

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech feels they're set for a grandstand finish.

He is loving Stamford Bridge and Sunday's win over Manchester City has kept alive Blues' hopes of retaining their title.

Cech said: "I think that, despite everything, we did exactly the same thing when we were winning 5-0 as in the period when we were losing or drawing.

"Lately we've managed to win games and have done some good things.

"We're more secure at the back and we still have the opportunity to catch Manchester United if they start dropping points.

"We are still dependent on all the others. But we have to win, win, win, keep the pressure on.

"What is essential for a club like Chelsea is to have the stature of a club playing in the Champions League next season.

"We have some big games coming up and there are teams around us who are battling for it as well.

"The game against City was a six-pointer."
