What were the highlights of Chelsea's 2-1 win against Burnley?
Bakayoko. It's Emerson's cross, Giroud, and it's Moses! And he's found the net! Chelsea summoning the character they need to keep up this Champions League chase.
Victor Moses the match winner for Chelsea tonight. He's with his captain Gary Cahill and both have joined Patrick Davison.
Guys, well played. Gary, they pushed you hard tonight, but having come through it, how satisfying a win is it?
Yeah, of course a win. Away here is very good for us. These have been a credit to themselves this season, they've been fantastic. Very tough place, they made it tough for us today throughout the whole game, but we're just happy to get the three points. Decent performance from us, I thought.
Victor made one, scored one. Why were you able to cause so much havoc tonight?
Definitely, I thought we deserved the three points today, right from the start to the end. I thought we showed a great character. It's not an easy place to come here to win, but we did. That's certainly what today. The most important thing is the footprint. As I said before, we just want to take each game as it comes and hopefully we'll keep doing well to the end of the season.
Gary, you put him in, actually, for the first goal. Did you know you had that space with him being wing-back, particularly tonight?
Yeah, I thought he was brilliant today. I think he kept the width really well for us today. We managed to get down the side quite often. But down both sides, to be honest with you.
How did Chelsea maintain their top four hopes with this victory?
So, yeah, just sort of like the corner man, I put him in and... a great finish, but like I said, he was superb. There was a number of players out there today that did very well, and we showed the right character and the right attitude, which is the main thing, otherwise you get unstuck at places like this.
I know you forced your way back in over the last couple of weeks, but did it feel a little bit like an audition tonight with a cup semi-final to come?
You could say that. I'm not putting too much pressure on myself in terms of that. I know what I'm capable of. I've done it for many years and it's just nice to be back out there and playing and getting the results. I think it's important that you get a match fit, a match sharp and you don't get that sat on the bench. Regular game time is what you need to get your eye back in and get sharp. I'm pleased that I've been back in the last couple of games and most importantly we just got the result today. It takes the momentum now into what's a very important weekend for us.
Do you remember after that Watford away game, which was pretty tough for everyone in a Chelsea shirt, you said you didn't recognise yourself. So how tough has it been with England and Chelsea?
Yeah, it's been tough, clearly, but football's a bit of a rollercoaster like that. It's not always been rosy, but if I average out my time here, it's been very successful, and my career so far I'm proud of. I've not finished, I keep going and I keep working hard, and I'll be back to the levels that I should be at in no time, so I don't worry about that.
Victor, you're not too far off fourth now, and of course you can still win the FA Cup. Is this still a season Chelsea can save?
Yeah, definitely we can't write ourselves up. I think we just need to take each game as it comes and we just need to finish as strong as possible for the end of the season. We believe in the players that we've got collectively and individually. I think the most important thing today is the three points, but we'll take the momentum into the game on Sunday. Gary, I have a job for you to finish. Premier League man of the match, this is Victor Moses.
What role did Victor Moses play in Chelsea's success?
Well done, mate. Thank you very much.
Cheers.
I wasn't sure, I thought he was getting to keep that himself, wasn't he?
I think you thought he'd done enough there, didn't you?
What did you think of him tonight?
Yeah, I thought he was excellent. Gary, someone I know very well, I played with him here, made his Football League debut at Burnley, and he certainly doesn't take anything for granted. When you have a discussion with him, even when he was handed the captaincy after John Terry left the club, he still said, well, I've got to fight for my place still, even though I'll have the armband.
