Courtois has expressed his frustration at more dropped points as Chelsea
were held to a goalless draw by Watford on Wednesday.
The Blues are 13th in the Premier League, 16 points behind fourth-placed
Arsenal and 11 adrift of Sunday's opponents Manchester United.
Goalkeeper Courtois has won back-to-back titles - La Liga while on loan at
Atletico Madrid prior to last season's Premier League triumph with the Blues
- and took little consolation from Chelsea extending their unbeaten run to
10 games since the departure of Jose Mourinho.
"Being unbeaten is always important but obviously we would have preferred to
win than draw," Courtois to Chelsea's official website.
"We could have won. It's a pity we didn't but now we have an important game
against Manchester United.
"We want to win every game and move up the table, it's another big one."
Chelsea might have grabbed all three points late on, but Diego Costa's
header was denied by Watford goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes.
"He's [Gomes] a very good goalkeeper and he proved that, the last save from
Diego was terrific and he saved them the points," Courtois added.
"We're not happy, we had the biggest chances and Gomes made two big saves.
"We cannot be happy with a point but it was a solid performance."
Watford now have 33 points with 14 games to play and sit ninth in the table,
with Tottenham next up on Saturday.
Defender Sebastian Prodl said: "It's a good situation at the moment, but we
have to be careful because the Premier League is very hard.
"We feel very confident, but we don't want to feel comfortable.
"We have to take points from our next games, otherwise we can get problems
in the end and that's not what we are working for in the last months.
"We have to concentrate and be focused in the next games to get the points
and to be safe as soon as possible."
