Cech Puts Celebrations On Ice


Petr Cech has told his Chelsea team-mates to focus on winning the FA Cup before truly celebrating their achievements this season.

Jubilant scenes greeted the final whistle at Stamford Bridge on Sunday as Chelsea clinched their first Premier League title since 2006 with an 8-0 thumping of Wigan.

Cech, who revealed his post-match celebrations consisted of a glass of champagne and a pint of Guinness, says he is more concerned with landing an historical domestic double than enjoying the Blues' title success.

"To win the Premier League is wonderful but the upcoming FA Cup final against Portsmouth is more important than a party," the 27-year-old goalkeeper told sport.cz.

."The ultimate target for all of us is to claim the double."

Cech, who collected his third winners' medal for the Blues, claimed this one meant the most.

"This one is the most valuable one because the league has been extremely even," added the Blues shot-stopper.

"It has shown that all big clubs invested big money into new signings ahead of the season.

"To win the third title has been the most difficult because in the two previous cases we had won it before the final round, this time we had to fight until the very end.

"We have won all matches against the clubs from the 'Big Four' and that made the difference in the end."
