Benitez not bothered by Chelsea table position

Chelsea boss Rafa Benitez isn't obsessing about their table position.

Chelsea will reduce the gap between themselves and Premier League leaders Manchester United to 11 points if they defeat Southampton, but Benitez is refusing to look at the table.

"I don't like to see the table every weekend. It's important that we keep winning games and we do that by playing well and scoring goals," he said.

"The stats are quite good - we are scoring a lot of goals and not conceding too many. That is the balance we were looking for.

"We want three points from every game and then we'll see where we are in a few weeks."
