Chelsea fullback Ryan Bertrand says the players are determined to win the Europa League.

After lifting the Champions League last season, Bertrand is hoping to make the most of present opportunities and win the Europa League this time around.

"It was always going to be hard to follow up. It doesn't come around too often," he told chelseafc.com. "As a player I want to go and win everything we can, so we want to go as far in every competition we can and secure as high a place in the league as we can as well.

"It's a chance to get another fantastic trophy if we do go all the way and win it. To have a chance to be in any competition at my age is a fantastic thing."
