Petr Cech : About Match againts Newcastle United

"Obviously the clean sheet makes it even better but the most important is the three points because after the defeat at Tottenham, we wanted to bounce back in the league,’ said Cech after the game."

"We won the FA Cup game playing well but this one was very important and you can see that Newcastle came out with no pressure, they had nothing to lose and in the first half they were a threat. So we had to really dig deep and in the second half we improved."

"Obviously the first goal helped us get over a difficult moment,’ he added, Oscar’s strike well-timed as it came shortly before the half-time team talks."

"In the second half we improved and then we had the chances to score more goals."

"In the first half we made some mistakes in possession and it gave Newcastle confidence and they were winning second balls and got more to the ball. That is why we had to chase the game a little bit and didn’t get our rhythm, but in the second half we improved in that and it made a difference.’"

"We need to concentrate on ourselves and we need to win our games,’ was Cech’s reaction."

"If we win all our remaining games then we don’t have to worry about that but you know in this league you can’t win every game, so you need to try every game to be ready and be competitive and to be sure at the end of the season you have the most points possible."
