"Winning that game is something we'll have to do to show we're worthy of being up there.

"You'd like to think so, wouldn't you? But we know there is a long way to go and a lot of hard work before we're in that position.

"It doesn't make any difference when we play Chelsea.

"Whatever position we are in we'll go there and want to do well. No matter what the circumstances, we won't be going to Stamford Bridge and taking our foot off the pedal.

"Winning that game is something we will have to do to show that we are worthy of being where we are now. We won't even be playing for the draw because that isn't the way we play, we always want to win.

"And they have beaten us at Stamford Bridge the last few years so it would mean a lot to go there and win."
