Malouda: No slacking off at Chelsea

Chelsea winger Florent Malouda is confident there will be no slacking off against Blackpool today.

French forward Malouda insists there is no danger of the champions taking it easy against a Tangerines side who have already won twice on their Premier League travels at Wigan and Newcastle.

"No matter what opponent we have to play against, we will play with the Chelsea style," said Malouda, who has scored four times in the opening four matches of the domestic season. "We will definitely maintain the confidence because we just keep scoring.

"There's no chance of us underestimating Blackpool. We are aware that if we make a mistake and miss a step against them we can lose top spot.

"We want to stay on top and we can't afford a lack of focus or concentration. We will play with our humility in this game, which is another main strength we have."
