Cech happy with blanks

Petr Cech believes Chelsea are back to their defensive best after Wednesday's 0-0 draw against Arsenal

Jose Mourinho's side had conceded 16 goals in nine games before their first clean sheet in six attempts against the Gunners, but Cech insists such problems are behind them.

Cech said: "It's very important to keep another clean sheet because we've not been able to stop conceding goals.

"But if you're constantly playing well you deserve to be champions and in this way we're better than Arsenal. They've dropped points during the season and we simply haven't done that."

Arjen Robben could return to the squad against Fulham tomorrow for the first time since injury. Otherwise Chelsea are unchanged.
