The players are honest, they can do better. We have to help them with that. But we have to focus on the positives. The attitude has been really good as a group. The spirit is there in the team. We just need a bit more luck, carry on the performance level and keep improving. Hopefully, we can improve and take the game to them at Stamford Bridge.”
