Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Brad Friedel has insisted that he is not feeling the pressure following a run of disappointing results in the Premier League.
Harry Redknapp's side have claimed just one point in their last four domestic fixtures, but Friedel believes that the tragic collapse of Bolton Wanderers midfielder Fabrice Muamba has put things into perspective.
"Football is not pressure," the London Evening Standard quotes Friedel as saying. "It might be for some, if you want to heap the pressure on then that's you as an individual person. But you play football, it's a game.
"We want to play well, we want to win but we all saw here last Saturday what pressure was. I've got three kids and raising them is far more pressure than a football match.
"Sometimes you can play very poorly and win a game and then nobody says anything. But we've been playing really good football without getting the results we want. I'm not concerned at all and we will go into the Chelsea game confident, expecting a good result."
Tottenham have slipped down into fourth place following the side's 1-1 draw with Stoke City last night.
