Goalkeeper Petr Cech has defended his drop in form for Chelsea and put his recent mistakes down to a long and tiring season.

The Czech Republic international has made 47 appearances for the Blues this term and claims he has two poor games for the club.

Cech came under fire for his displays against Bolton in the Barclays Premier League and Liverpool in the Champions League but insists he is not having sleepless nights over it.

And Cech, who saved Mark Noble's penalty in Chelsea's 1-0 win over West Ham on Saturday, said: 'Sometimes when you play 40 games with good performances and have two bad games, that can happen. It was nothing dramatic for me. I have been working well and I knew I had been doing things right, it just wasn't happening in the games.

'Since then we have qualified for the final of the FA Cup and we kept a clean sheet against Everton, so I can be happy again.'

Cech, meanwhile, is still confident Chelsea will win some silverware this season.

'We have had a good two weeks,' said Cech. 'We qualified for the Champions League semi-final and we qualified for the final of the FA Cup, so we are going there with a positive mood and of course it will be a big task, but we are ready for the challenge.'

It seemed to be not be so much dodgy games just dodgy things that he did.Punch the ball right at the oppostion etc and flap at crosses but since then (touch wood) he's getting over that and more confident
