TrueChelseaBlue 105 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech says Arsenal were handed a big advantage this weekend by playing - and winning - against Blackburn Rovers last night. Cech said: "It is hard coming back from internationals for a Premier League game because you have to travel and we have had a lot of games. "But you can't use that as an excuse because the other teams, Liverpool and Manchester United, have a lot internationals. Arsenal have one day extra which is better but they have a lot of internationals also. "When you are playing for a big team you have to be aware of this and get through. We were unlucky against Liverpool but in the end we dropped two points." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
