Chelsea goalkeeper Asmir Begovic has said that his side's poor run of form has "not been easy" to deal with.
The reigning Premier League champions have slumped to 15th in the Premier League table and are 14 points behind leaders Manchester City.
Nonetheless, the Bosnian goalkeeper has maintained that there is a "huge determination to turn things round" among the squad.
"We set high standards and we have high expectations of ourselves in the dressing room so it's not been easy," he told the club's official website.
"On the other hand though there is a huge determination to turn things round, work through this tough time and work it out in the future.
"We are going step by step, game by game, and it's about putting a run of wins together. We can get back up that table quickly."
Begovic faces a return to his former club Stoke City when Chelsea travel to the Britannia Stadium on Saturday evening.
