Petr Cech has revealed how a halftime rant turned Chelsea's recent poor form around against Fulham.
Goalkeeper Cech says Monday's half-time mauling was the moment Chelsea got their faltering title challenge back on track.
Carlo Ancelotti's league leaders were booed off as they trailed Fulham.
Keeper Cech said: "We knew at half-time we could either turn things around or make things even worse and give a chance to Manchester United and Arsenal to overtake us.
"It was the point to start winning games again. And we took that moment.
"The manager told us we needed to play much faster and there was a great reaction to come from behind to win 2-1."
