Chelsea captain John Terry not worried by busy fixture schedule

Chelsea captain John Terry has insisted that he and his teammates are relishing their busy fixture schedule.

The Blues currently sit five points clear at the top of the Premier League table, while they are also still in the Champions League and have the League Cup final to look forward to in the coming weeks.

Despite being active in three competitions, Terry claims that the squad is excited about the possibility of winning three trophies rather than the physical toll it could take on them.

"When you have been in the game for as long as I have, you are obviously used to these situations, and a lot of the other players in the squad are as well," the defender told the club's official magazine.

"Busy weeks are what we're used to here and, for me, we are at our best when we are playing two, three games a week.

"Knowing the Champions League comes back soon, having a cup final to look forward to and playing loads of games in a short space of time is where we are all used to being. As a group of players, it's how we like it and it's what this club has been used to over the last 10 years."

Chelsea are back in action on Tuesday when they travel to Paris Saint-Germain for the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.
