Chelsea squad are like 'brothers' — Moses

Victor Moses says Chelsea have no fear of Manchester City and has issued a winter rallying cry for the Premier League champions as they go into a busy fixture period.

The 26-year-old is closing in on a return from a grade three hamstring strain and was forced to watch on as Man City gained a nine point lead in the table.

Moses insists that the squad are still like "brothers" and are ready close the gap ahead of a busy run of fixtures.

"I think we have done well. We as a team, whatever happens, we stick together as a team and do the best we can," Moses told *Goal *after being shortlisted for both the BBC's African Footballer of the Year and the Confederation of African Football's (CAF) Player of the Year awards.

"I think people have been a bit too harsh but we as players don’t need to think about that or concentrate on what people have been saying.

"We are just trying to play as many games as possible and trying to win football matches. If we can win all the trophies then that would be a great bonus for us. We don’t need to compete with City alone.

"We beat them home and away last season and we are the champions of England so we can believe in ourselves and we all want to win every trophy this season."
