London: Spanish defender Cesar Azpilicueta feeling good and looking to become a mainstay at Chelsea. The Blues' club captain returned to Frank Lampard's team for a 3-0 win over West Ham. This win over West Ham has helped to keep Chelsea in title contention, as they sit fifth in the table, with Azpilicueta taking plenty of positives from a convincing success. Azpilicueta is eyeing Reece James' place in the side who missed the last game due to knee injury.

Azpilicueta told an official website, "It was good to be back. I've been playing more in the Champions League but it's true that in the Premier League, I haven't been involved since Old Trafford. It has been a while but my job is to work hard to improve every day and, whenever the manager needs me to step up, do the best job I can. To win was important and we did well. 

He further added that the way they play, they put you under pressure. At only 1-0, the game was open and we had to suffer. When you come from two defeats, you have to recover that spirit of winning and we did that.
