Thibaut Courtois claims Chelsea's club-
record winning streak was kick-commenced by
back-to-back Premier League losses in
September.

Antonio Conte's side beat Bournemouth 3-0
on Monday to make it 12 top-flight wins in
a row, a run that commenced following
consecutive league defeats to Liverpool
and Arsenal.
And goalkeeper Courtois concedes those
two results were a wake-up call for the
Blues, who put up a meek defence of their
designation last season, culminating 31 points behind
champions Leicester City.

"So that's why we talked as a team about
making a step up at that point, because we
didn't want to have the same season as
last year. We needed to step up and that's
what we did.
"Obviously with the current run of wins of
course we would say we are doing maybe
better than expected after a bad season
last year.
"We are top of the league with more points
than we had after this many games when
we were champions two years ago."
