Terry wants Chelsea to re-establish Stamford as a fortress

After setting a record for consecutive away wins, Chelsea captain John Terry wants the team to build on that and turn it into home success.

Recently, the Blues have dropped points at Stamford Bridge and Terry believes it is important for the club to re-establish the home base as a place where opponents hate to come.

"We've learned that successful teams go on big runs," said Terry.

"We've put together an away Premier League run but it is nowhere near enough.

"This week we must start the next home run to build on our away success.

"At the end of the week we face Arsenal at home if we win that, we can inflict real damage on their challenge for the title.

"Just because we've lost our home record and gone out of the Carling Cup is no reason to get too concerned about home form.

"I think our best display of the season was when we beat Aston Villa at the Bridge. More of that and we'll set a new home record."
