Cucurella excited about his new role at Chelsea

Marc Cucurella is excited for his new role at Chelsea after going weeks without playing.

Cucurella now plays at right-back switching from his traditional left back position. The Spaniard was a wantaway player at Chelsea. He only got a playing opportunity with Reece James injured and Malo Gusto suspended.

Chelsea has won all three matches Cucurella featured in. The latest being a 4-1 victory over Burnley.

He told the club’s website: “The reaction of the team after conceding the goal was very good. We created chances and after half time, we were very focused on what we needed to do.

“We scored early [in the second half] and then dominated the game. It’s a very good win for us because we were confident and scored a lot of goals.

“In other games, maybe we lose confidence [after going behind], but today we followed the game plan, kept building, and kept fighting. The confidence in the team is better after two wins in a row.

“Today, maybe we got a little bit of luck with the first goal, we’ve not had that in other games. Then we continue. We believe in ourselves and the plan and we have a really important three points.”
