Chelsea are seven points clear at summit of the Premier League and one player that has been outstanding for Chelsea this season is goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.
Thibaut Courtois has kept 12 clean sheets in the Premier League this season and has only conceded 15 goals.
Ex-Arsenal player Charlie Nicholas insists Courtois is an important player for Chelsea and he also believes Courtois can win Chelsea the title this season if he carries on his fantastic form.
“They’ve had a couple of games where they’ve been questioned and Thibaut Courtois came up with the answers,” Nicholas told Sky Sports.
“Costa, Hazard and Fabregas are more valuable in attacking senses.
“But when it comes to the big moments in the big games, it will be Courtois who decides whether they can win the title.
“They’ve got a few really big games coming up and for me, if he carries on keeping clean sheets, Chelsea will simply win the title.”
