Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois upbeat despite draw

Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois remains upbeat despite conceding late to see his team draw with Manchester United.

Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has remained positive despite conceding a late goal during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Manchester United in the Premier League.

The Blues were 60 seconds away from leaving Old Trafford with a win, but Robin van Persie finally found the net to earn United a precious point.

While claiming that it was a "pity" that Chelsea could not close out the match, Courtois is still pleased with his team's unbeaten start to the season.

"We've started very well; if you'd said at the start of the season that, after nine games, we'd be top, four points ahead of Southampton and six ahead of Manchester City we would have taken it, but we should have won this game so it's a pity," he told the club's official website.

Chelsea return to League Cup action on Tuesday when they make the trip to Shrewsbury Town in the fourth round.
