Thomas Tuchel has pointed to a Liverpool example as he vowed Chelsea will fight on through a fixture pile-up.
The Londoners are currently competing on five fronts.
Not only are they firmly in the Premier League title race, but Chelsea are eyeing progress in Europe and both domestic cups, with the Club World Cup to play in Abu Dhabi next February too.
Liverpool became champions of the world in 2019, winning the competition after beating Flamengo in Qatar to add to their Champions League triumph.

Jurgen Klopp sent a strong squad to the Middle East for the tournament but that meant the Reds effectively had to sacrifice a Carabao Cup quarter-final against Aston Villa.
Scheduling forced the manager's hand - with games against Villa and Monterrey coming inside 24 hours on two different continents.
Asked about his priorities if a similar situation arose, Tuchel accepted the calendar was against Liverpool.
But he insisted Chelsea will "push through and pursue" every chance for silverware this season.
In a press conference yesterday, Tuchel said: "I think [Liverpool] did [what they did against Villa] because they played one day later in Qatar.
"I think they would not have sacrificed it if they had three or four days in between, they would have tried to find solutions.
"But no, we will never do this because if we think we need to rest players or give players a chance to play, like it's a tradition in the Carabao Cup, then we will do it but we will always prepare to win the match.

"This is the spirit we have to keep going.
"It is a struggle, of course it is a struggle and it feels very demanding, I can assure you of that. For everybody, the staff and the players but we will push through and pursue it, there is no other option.
"We love to be in these competitions and we want to stay in them. We want to arrive in March, April or May in these competitions. So no, we don’t start judging games and the value for those games."
A three-way title race is emerging with Liverpool and Chelsea in the slipstream of Manchester City at the top of the table.
City are currently one point clear of the Reds at the summit.
Chelsea's fortunes have been mixed recently, with defeat at West Ham and a draw with Everton leaving them three points behind Liverpool.
Tuchel's men take on Wolves away tomorrow with the Reds travelling to Spurs.
It remains to be seen whether the Stamford Bridge boss can keep his promise to value all competitions equally, with Covid postponements threatening to put pressure on the football schedule as 2022 draws near.
Five top flight games have been called off already this weekend, with a further five still set to be played as things stand.
Liverpool's showdown at Chelsea is not far off now, with that league game set for January 2nd.
