Rafa Benitez thought Chelsea fully deserved their victory after a 2-0 win over Swansea City lifted the Blues back to third in the Premier League.

Chelsea have gone three points clear of Spurs in the race for a UEFA Champions League place ahead of Thursday's Europa League semi-final second leg against Basel and Sunday's trip to Manchester United. Benitez added: "We said that it (the race for top four) could go on until the end of the season so we have to concentrate on every game. Today to get three points, to do well, to play nice football was also important. "So we have to be ready now for Thursday and after Sunday obviously."
