Chelsea winger Mudryk: I know I'm improving with every session

Chelsea's embattled winger Mykhailo Mudryk admits he was delighted at finally scoring for the club.

A mega money arrival from Shakhtar Donetsk in January, Mudryk had to wait until October to get his first competitive Blues goal.

He finally notched a goal in the Premier League, scoring in the 2-0 win over Fulham on Monday.

Post-game, he spoke about adapting to his new surroundings: “With every game, every training session, you understand better the main things the manager wants from the team.

“So you improve, get better, better, and better. Then this is what you have to show on the pitch."

He added on the goal: “It's a special moment for me, a first goal, it's always special.

“I'm so excited and happy with this moment for our supporters. It's a big moment for me and all the people that have supported me.

“Sometimes this happens [the wait for a goal] and you have to accept this. You have to just keep working hard and then moments will come."
