Chelsea midfielder Oriol Romeu hopes for a Capital One Cup chance tonight against Manchester United.
The Spaniard is determined to show boss Roberto Di Matteo he deserves regular football by helping to avenge Sunday's controversial 3-2 defeat to Alex Ferguson's men.
Romeu said: "I know I have to wait until the chance comes and I am trying to be ready and get my body fit for when I can go onto the pitch and play.
"Right now I feel ready and I am waiting for it to come. Wednesday night may be a good chance to show that I am ready to play for Chelsea.
"For me every minute I can play in every competition is important. It doesn't matter which one, you just want to play well and enjoy your football for the club.
"This is a competition that can give minutes to people who are not playing regularly - and it lets you show the manager that he can put you on the pitch."
