I was hoping we could achieve our 5th win in a row, but I am not disappointed at all by the last home game. We had to face one of the top in the Premier League and it is exactly like us winning the away games against Arsenal and Leeds. I know that all the fans expected a win by it is not always possible to win. We should not forget that we had a very difficult schedule the last two weeks and we still have very difficult games coming our way, starting with the Manchester United in two days time.

As far as I am concerned, I had only one full training sessions before the Chelsea game, and I believe it was for my best the fact that I did not play. However I will have two or three more training sessions before the next game. I will be very disappointed if I am not given the chance to play not only because I will be 100% ready to play, but also because I believe I have been in very good shape the last months and have contributed to our league position with my consistent perfomances.
