Terry hoping to avoid slip-ups

(GSM) – John Terry believes Chelsea cannot afford any more slip-ups if they are to maintain their lead at the top of the Premier League. The Blues skipper also says that, after a tough time for Arsenal, The Gunners are now back in the title race.

The Blues remained top of the table following Manchester United’s 1-1 draw at Birmingham. Meanwhile Arsenal are three points behind their London rivals after they drew 2-2 with Everton.

Chelsea’s game with Hull City was called off, but the Blues skipper insists the team needs to capitalize and avoid losing form.

Chelsea have dropped points in the league as of late, having won just twice in their last six league matches.

“We cannot afford any more slip-ups,” he said.

“Thankfully the teams in and around us have been slipping up as well, but Arsenal are right back in the frame again.

“When we beat them 3-0 I thought they were out of it, to be honest.”
