Chelsea No2 Wilkins heaps praise on Cup hero Sturridge

Chelsea No2 Ray Wilkins heaped praise on Danny Sturridge after their FA Cup win over Cardiff City.

Sturridge was again on the scoresheet in the victory.

Wilkins told chelseafc.com: "Daniel's been working really hard and he's done very well. It's never easy for a player to come in to a group of players such as we've got, but he's worked extremely hard at his game. He has a lot of talent and we're hoping for big things.

"We want to win every game we play and we're fortunate to have a squad of players that can accommodate that situation. The team was changed today, we took quality out and quality came back in."
