(Reuters) - The Chelsea players need to shoulder the responsibility for their "abysmal" Premier League displays in recent weeks and not under-fire manager Antonio Conte, defender Gary Cahill said. "The players have to take responsibility. The manager has done an absolutely unbelievable job," Cahill said. The defeat against Watford left Chelsea fourth in the table, 19 points adrift of runaway leaders Manchester City with a clash against basement side West Bromwich Albion coming up on Monday. Fellow defender Cesar Azpilicueta said Chelsea must focus on finishing in the top four and suggested they could still salvage their season by winning a cup competition.
