"We all have to take our responsibility, if you are a big player and are paid like a big player you have to perform and behave like a big player," he said at a Q&amp;A session for a charity in London.
"We all have bad games, but the attitude always has to be spot on and we have to be at the top of our games even when it's not and not the behaviour that we are seeing right now from every Chelsea player."
He added: "As a player you have pride. Ok, we cannot win right now the Premier League, but come on. We all have to do better. Right now it's not the time to think about where we'll finish. We've been saying it all season: we draw one game, OK, next game looks easy. But we lose.
"Next game we say the same thing, so at the end of the day I don't think about anything, I just think that I want to beat Sunderland and play my best, and that's it because right now, no-one is easy as it shows."
