Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has insisted that his side's goalless draw with Manchester City will give the team a platform to build on.
The Blues started life under Rafael Benitez with a stalemate against the reigning champions, a result which Cech believes can serve as a catalyst for improvement after a turbulent week at Stamford Bridge.
He told Sky Sports News: "Today was about starting from zero again, and a draw when you have just changed your manager is not a bad result.
"We will need some time to build and a draw against the champions is a good start.
"When your manager is sacked it is always bad news as a player because you are responsible for the situation as well. We have a new manager now and we are in the same boat."
A point against City means Chelsea stay in third place in the Premier League, five points behind leaders Manchester United.
