Midfielder John Obi Mikel believes only winning the Premier League title will make the season a success for Chelsea.
The Blues are still in the league and FA Cup mix as the season reaches its conclusion, but after a disappointing Champions League exit against Inter Milan in March the 22-year-old believes the squad have one clear priority.
“I've won the FA Cup twice and I think if I win the Premier League I will be happier,” Mikel told the Evening Standard.
“We are disappointed with how we went out to Inter, but that's behind us now and we've got to focus on winning the Premier League.
That's just as important a trophy."
After a crucial 2-1 victory against Manchester United last Saturday, the Blues are two points ahead of their rivals in the table with just five games remaining. And the Nigerian is confident the squad are capable of finishing the job.
“We're still in the race for the title and I think the belief is there," he said.
"We've got the right mentality, everything seems to be in place, so it's up to us to keep it going.”
