Kalou pushing Chelsea for third-place finish

Salomon Kalou believes it is still possible for Chelsea to finish in third position this season.

The Blues dropped to sixth after last night's 1-1 draw with West London rivals Fulham, leaving them four points behind current third-place holders Arsenal, but the Ivorian is remaining positive about an automatic Champions League spot.

"We have to forget about the game [last night] and continue to work hard because it's still possible to get the third place," he told Chelsea TV.

Chelsea next meet another London rival, Tottenham, in Sunday's FA Cup semi-final at Wembley before focusing on the Champions League semi-final first leg against Barcelona at Stamford Bridge on April 18.
