Asmir Begovic insists Chelsea will keep their cool in the title race.

Chelsea have lost two of their last four Premier League games, including Sunday's 2-0 reverse at Manchester United, which has seen their lead over second-placed Tottenham reduced to just four points.

The Blues won the title in 2015 and with the majority of that squad still in place at Stamford Bridge Begovic is confident they have what it takes to do so again.

"It's not getting nervy. We are an experienced group of players who have been there and done this before. We have to just focus on getting better for the next game," he told the club's website.

Begovic maintained that Chelsea were still in a good position and urged his team to focus on themselves instead of Tottenham.

"We'll bounce back. There is still lots to play for this season. We just have to do our job. We still have a four-point advantage which at the beginning of the season we would have taken at this stage," Begovic said.

"We just have to concentrate on ourselves. If we pick up the points we need it doesn't matter what Spurs do."

Chelsea will turn their immediate attention to Saturday's FA Cup semi-final against Tottenham at Wembley before hosting Southampton next week.
