Danny Drinkwater admits it didn't work out for him at Chelsea.

The midfielder has joined Burnley on a short-term loan deal after failing to make a single Premier League appearance for the Blues last season.

"It was a bit of a complicated time at Chelsea, but I see this as a positive move and I'm looking forward to getting going," Drinkwater told the official Burnley website.

"I've been lucky enough to work with the manager (Sean Dyche) in the past and he's given me another shot right now.

"I've not played much football, but hopefully I can prove him right.

"Pre-season has been good and I've taken part in most things.

"Unfortunately it's not happened for me at Chelsea, but you have to go with the flow.

"I think now the target is to get to a level where the manager is happy with my fitness and keep moving forward and working hard.

"Hopefully I can put my game onto Burnley and we can finish as high as we possibly can."
