Cesar Azpilicueta: 'Chelsea remain focused on Premier League glory'

Chelsea full-back Cesar Azpilicueta acknowledges that his side are "in a very good position" to go on and lift the Premier League title for a fourth time.

Cesar Azpilicueta has warned Chelsea's Premier League title rivals that his side have no intention of letting their hefty lead at the top slip away.

Despite struggling to match the form set in the first half of the season, the Blues still find themselves six points clear of closest challengers Manchester City, while also holding a game in hand.

Chelsea have remained at the summit right throughout the campaign, and Azpilicueta believes that lifting a fourth crown in May would be a just reward for the West London club.

"We have been top of the table since day one," he told Sky Sports News. "We kept that position obviously and had very good moments, as well as some less good moments, but we were there still top of the table and this is the strength of the team.

"You can be up and down, but you have to be focused on the target and I think now we are in a very good position."

Next up for Chelsea in their charge for the title is a home match against Stoke City this evening.
