Thibaut Courtois: thinks beginning 2016 with such a positive result will advantage the group overall looking further ahead.

Sunday's 3-0 win at Crystal Palace was our fourth successive Premier League amusement without thrashing, yet all the more vitally the general nature of the execution gave numerous motivations to positive thinking, with the resistance from time to time disturbed and our assaulting players sparkling.

'I think in the most recent couple of weeks we've played some great football yet haven't got the outcomes,' said Courtois, who showed up at Selhurst Park.

'Against Crystal Palace we got the outcome and it was likewise great football. It was a decent execution and now we can look ahead to one week from now with a great deal of certainty. The win is vital.'

In the three matches Guus Hiddink has assumed responsibility of the Blues have drawn twice and won once, and Courtois talked about the Dutchman's effect.

'He says a few things he needs us to do, diverse activities amid the amusement, preparing is a tiny bit distinctive too,' clarified the Belgian.

'It's only an alternate methodology by they way he needs to prepare. Now and then perhaps it's a tiny bit strategic, there are little recreations he enjoys us to play, possibly it's shooting on objective to offer certainty to the strikers. He's occasionally more all things considered, watching, and leaves the preparation to Steve Holland and Eddie Newton. When he discloses things to you he clarifies them well, every chief has his approach to work.

'In football it's generally the way that when results aren't great the first individual you take a gander at is the supervisor, however it's not just the chief, the players need to assume liability also. We are the ones who are playing.

'With another director a few things change, perhaps a few players' mindset changes and you get some great results. We are still the same group that were champions a year ago with Mourinho.'

Our FA Cup crusade starts on Sunday when we invite League One side Scunthorpe United to Stamford Bridge.

The opposition has served us well as of late, and Courtois is certain we can go the distance.

'We play Scunthorpe, we must be arranged and it will be a hard diversion, there are no simple recreations in England,' he said.

'We can go far in the FA Cup and ideally we can win it. With the FA Cup and Champions League it can at present be a positive season, particularly on the off chance that we wind up in the main four in the group.

'We need to go orderly. A few groups are near one another and in the event that we win against West Brom and Everton I think we could climb to eighth or ninth. We have to attempt to get the outcomes.'
