Even after sealing the Premier League title with a win over Crystal Palace last weekend, Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic isn’t ready to relax and wants his team to win their remaining three games of the season.
Chelsea were crowned English champions after defeating Alan Pardew’s Crystal Palace 1-0 on Sunday, which gave the Blues an unassailable 13-point lead in the standings with three matches to spare.
The west London outfit will play their remaining games against Liverpool, West Bromwich Albion and Sunderland, and the Serbia international feels that his team will be up for their remaining games, despite the title race being done and dusted.
“We will be prepared for those”, he told his club’s site.
“Of course we don’t have the pressure of needing to win the league anymore, we are first whatever, but we will play seriously and try to enjoy the games we have left.”
