Petr Cech believes the current Chelsea squad has the potential to become one of the greatest in the club’s history.
Jose Mourinho’s men top the Premier League with 39 points from 16 matches and have lost just once in the top flight this term, against Newcastle at St James’ Park earlier this month.
Tuesday’s 3-1 victory at Derby County also put the London club through to the semi-finals of the League Cup, where they will meet Liverpool home and away for a place at Wembley.
An unprecedented quadruple is not out of the question, with Chelsea set to take on Paris Saint-Germain in the last 16 of the Champions League and Watford in the FA Cup third round.
And Cech, who has largely played second fiddle to Thibaut Courtois at Stamford Bridge this term, has challenged the team to live up to their potential by securing silverware.
“This team has the potential and the quality to become one of the best teams in Chelsea’s history if it proves it by winning the trophies,” the 3v 2-year-old told reporters.
“We progressed in the Champions League, our aim, we’ve progressed in the League Cup, and we are top of the league. So far we are doing well.
