Jose Mourinho has insisted that a lack of egos in the squad is helping Chelsea enjoy success this season.
Chelsea are currently six points clear at the top of the Premier League and have not yet suffered defeat in any competition, and Mourinho believes that the attitude in the dressing room is the key behind their fine form.
"We just care about the team, about the result, about the table, about our collective ambitions," the Blues boss told Yahoo Sport.
"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.
"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."
Chelsea return to action against Newcastle United on Saturday afternoon.
