​Chelsea defender Rudiger hopes for cup glory

Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger believes a cup win would be a great way to crown Chelsea's season.

The Blues centre-half has been critical of his team in the past, suggesting their lack of mentality is why they are not challenging for the title.

But Rudiger is happy at the club and wants to win trophies with his teammates.

He hopes they can start with the League Cup, where they face Manchester City in the final.

"Of course I've been very annoyed recently that we have unnecessarily dropped points in some games, but for our goal to reach the top four we are still in business," said Rudiger to Goal.com and Spox.

"The FA Cup is now really at an important stage. In the League Cup, we are already in the final.

"Although many people here think that this cup is not that important, a title is still a title and always something special."
