Chelsea's players know they have to improve in order to save face this season. At least that's what Thibaut Courtois revealed.
During Monday's press conference, the Belgian goalie, who recently returned from an injury, shared his thoughts about how much blame everyone has to take for Jose Mourinho's sacking six months after being crowned as Premier League champions.
"In football it is always like that - when results are not good the first one to get criticised is the manager. But it's not only the manager - the players have to take responsibility as well. We were the ones not playing as well. Of course with a new manager some things change," Courtois stated.
The Belgian international also hinted that those who were not happy with Mourinho at the helm shoul reconsider their stance, since their careers could be handed a serious blow if they don't improve their performances.
We need to pick up our level because we are not playing good enough for a Chelsea player. We are playing for our futures, of course. We had team meetings where we said the same, that 'okay the manager has gone but we are responsible as well'," the player added.
Chelsea will have a long week to prepare for their next EPL game, following their FA Cup elimination last year.
