Everyone was waiting for them to collapse but no. The season before with me at Chelsea it was the same. "In the last three or four years it’s been like that - a team goes out in front - but at the moment you can’t say that in relation to us. It’s two games. It’s nothing. We won three in a row last season and we finished sixth, so for me it means nothing."</blockquote>
