Cech: Blues must be more clinical

Petr Cech believes Chelsea must rediscover a clinical edge in front of goal to avoid ending the season without silverware.

Wednesday's exit from the Capital One Cup, after failing to score in either leg of their semi-final with Swansea, means the Blues have already missed out on five competitions this season, with the Community Shield, UEFA Super Cup, World Club Championship and Champions League added to their League Cup exit.

Rafael Benitez's side also trail Premier League leaders Manchester United by 11 points, and goalkeeper Cech has placed the blame for their predicament squarely at the feet of their forward players. "It was disappointing because we didn't score against Swansea," the 30-year-old said.
