Chelsea boss, Jose Mourinho, revealed the secret behind his side’s unbeaten start to the Premier League campaign.
The Portuguese insisted that his players don’t care about individual awards and just want to progress as a team.
"I think a good quality of our team is exactly that we don't care about it (individual praise),” he told reporters, as quoted by the Daily Star.
"We just care about the team, about the result, about the table, about our collective ambitions.
"We don't have space for selfish people. We don't have space for egocentric people. We don't have space for people who think more about themselves than the team.
"I think this is a great quality for us.
"Obviously we like very, very much to have someone voted player of the month or have somebody score the goal of the week - these little things that for some are big things but for us are small things."
Mourinho also believes Chelsea’s style of play has improved and his side don’t just win games, but do it with flair.
"What we want is to win matches, play well, make people realise that we play not just to get a result but to reach a certain level of quality of our game,” he added.
"We are happy with the results. We are happy that people are saying Chelsea is playing flair football more than ever. That's our whole objective. We are a team."
Chelsea have won 11 games and drawn three in their unbeaten start to the new Premier League campaign. They next travel to Newcastle on Saturday.
