Midfielder looking to end rivals’ title aspirations
Chelsea midfielder Willian has revealed that his team are looking to ruin Spurs’ title hopes when they play each other Stamford Bridge on Monday night.
Tottenham could still be in with a shout of the title come Monday night, if Leicester don’t victor away at Manchester United on Sunday, but face a tough game when they play Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea have very little to play for after a disappointing season, but Willian is determined not to let that stopping them from denying Spurs any slim chance of winning the league.
“We don’t want Spurs to win the league,” Willian said. “Of course we want to win against them. The fans of Chelsea do not want them to win the title.
“Of course it will be a difficult game, a massive game. We have to win for our pride, not because Spurs are fighting to win the league.
“They have a great team, a great manager and they play great football. We have to go to the game, stay focused and play compact.
“We have to play like we did last season. At home we always have to win. This game is special for us. They come to win.
“They respect us but if they win here they have a chance to win the league. We have to stop them winning the league.”
