Victor Moses says Chelsea's attentions are all on the Europa League
VICTOR MOSES insists Chelsea's sole focus is tonight's Europa League quarter-final with Rubin Kazan - not Sunday's huge FA Cup clash with Manchester City.
Chelsea hold a 3-1 aggregate lead going into the second leg at Luzhniki Stadium and the Blues follow that with a visit to Wembley to take on Premier League champions City.
Moses said: "We'll focus on the game. It's the Europa League, it's a massive game for us.
"We just want to put the City game behind us at the moment - that doesn't come until Sunday.
"Rubin Kazan are a great team, so we're here to do our best. We're very focused.
"It's not going to be an easy test for us but we're looking forward to it.
"If we can score an early goal that would be great for us.
"Hopefully we'll do our best to try to win the game and get into the semi-final."
Midfielder John Obi Mikel recently suggested he struggles for motivation for the Europa League - but a trophy is on the horizon.
Chelsea could become the first team to hold the Europa League and Champions League trophies at the same time - for a few days at least - if they win the final in Amsterdam on May 15.
Boss Rafael Benitez added: "We have a lot of respect for Rubin Kazan. We know that it's a good team.
"All my players know how important this competition is and they will be really pleased if we go through and will go to the final and if we can win the final."
