Chelsea not throwing in the towel just yet says Terry

Chelsea captain John Terry says there is no chance his side will give up the fight for this season's title.

The Blues fell 11 points behind league leaders Manchester United after their 1-1 draw with Stoke City on Saturday which with seven games remaining could prove hard t chase down.

But a defiant Terry said that the Blues will continue chasing results until there is no chance left of retaining their title whilst striving to progress through to the Champions League semi-finals.

"At a different stage of the season you could look at the result against Stoke and maybe say that it was a good point, but the position we were in we needed to win the game to keep on the tail of Man United and Arsenal so it is two points dropped," he said.

"It was always going to be a massive challenge and we are still not giving up - no chance. But we must pick ourselves up and go again on Wednesday.

"It is a huge game against Man United back at the Bridge in front of our fans and hopefully that will be the key."
