Petr Cech: We fell short of Chelsea standards

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Mon, 02/13/2012 - 12:02

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech admits they let themselves down in defeat at Everton.

Cech says Chelsea's performance was "not good enough".

"When you lose a game 2-0 and you are Chelsea Football Club playing for the Champions League and with big expectations, losing is not good enough and the performance was not good enough, that's why we lost," Cech told Chelsea TV.

"We took so many passes side to side and we never really opened them up. In the second half we tried to play more direct but they were fighting well and kept organised, and 1-0 up so early became so much more difficult to break."
