Premier League: Victor Moses reveals player that helped revive his career at Chelsea

Chelsea wing-back, Victor Moses, has revealed his biggest influence at the club.

The Nigerian forward surprisingly picked defence partner, Cezar Azpilicueta as the player who has played the biggest part in transforming his Chelsea career.

The former England youth team player joined Chelsea from Wigan in 2012, but had a torrid time at the beginning of his stay at Stamford Bridge, failing to nail a regular playing time.

He was shipped out to Liverpool, Stoke City and West Ham United after his first season with the Blues.

He told Goal, “I’d say Azpilicueta (has influenced me most). He played a huge part in my defensive development last season.

“He is always behind me, always constantly talking to me to make sure I am in the right position. When is the time to go and when’s the time to stay.

“The more games I was playing, [the more] we were getting used to the formation and position I was playing, which worked out well for me and he helped a lot.

“He understands me. We established a partnership which was very good.

“To me, I would say that Cesar is underrated. As a defender he has got everything. He’s quick, he’s got that desire, passion for the game. He just wants to play football. Azpilicueta is never tired. He can run all night in every minute. He wants to play every game.

“I think he could play on a Saturday and then again on a Monday. He’s got a great ability.

“It is great for us that we have him. He’s someone that loves the game. He is always talking to every player before games. He wakes everyone up and says we have got to go out there and win this game.”
