Chelsea’s Moses buoyant ahead of Spurs clash

A resurgent Victor Moses is in buoyant mood as table-toppers Chelsea host unbeaten Tottenham Hotspur in Saturday’s late kick-off.

The Nigerian international has been deployed in a right wing-back role of late and has helped the Stamford Bridge club to six consecutive league wins.

Despite picking up the man of the match award against Middlesbrough, Moses commended his side for grinding out a win on Teesside which saw the Blues climb to the top of the league.

He said: “It was a big boost for me but the most important thing is the team.

“We just have to keep believing in ourselves. I’m enjoying my game at the moment and I just want to keep on improving.”

Moses praised the performances of teammate Pedro and revealed that their impressive on-field connection is down to hard work in training.

The Nigerian said: “Pedro has been playing really well, he’s getting used to the Premier League and he understands the game very well.

“I like playing with Pedro, we have a great understanding between us and it’s working well for the team.

“He’s a great player and he’s won everything so you have to respect his achievements. When you come to a new country it can be difficult but he’s got to grips with it now and he’s doing well.”
