Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen 'happy' with his form

Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen is delighted with his recent form.

Since coming into the side for the win over Manchester United at the start of this month, Christensen has started every league game as the central figure in the three-man defensive unit and the 21-year-old is growing in stature with every performance.

"I'm happy with the way I'm performing and the team are performing," he said. "We're getting the points that are necessary and I'm enjoying playing my football.

"For me the loan (with Borussia Monchengladbach) was perfect timing. I got a lot of experience and played in the Champions League for two seasons. The Bundesliga is a high level and that was what I needed to help me come back."

The Dane added: "We don't look at who we're playing, we just look at a tight schedule, prepare ourselves for a tough month and make sure we rest the right way."
