Olivier Giroud is excited by the attacking player he's working with at Chelsea.

Giroud spoke about his relationship with Eden Hazard, Pedro and Willian, and how the way they play is beneficial for him.

"We try to have a good understanding on the pitch," said the forward. "Everything was not perfect because it was the first game. I'm happy but there is still room for improvement. I was very happy to set up the goal for Eden.

"It's simple to have a good understanding with him because he smells the game, he smells football. With him, Pedro, Willian or whoever plays as the number 10, we always try to have a good understanding.

"It's easy for me because the two number 10s play closer [to me] than I've played in the past, and that's very important for our game."
