Chelsea fullback Emerson happy with Premier League experience

Chelsea fullback Emerson Palmieri feels he's now adjusted to the Premier League.

Emerson has been looking back at his experiences of the Premier League so far.

"The Premier League is a league like no other," said the 24-year-old. "It is so competitive, even when you play teams from the lower half of the table you struggle. Every game seems to be a cup final in the Premier League. This is what I've learned by being here.

"In terms of my favourite moment, it was my debut, the first time I started a game, which was away from home at Burnley. That is something that is going to stay with me forever I think.

"Now, I try to improve every day and I know that I need to improve every day because I want to stay here and keep playing for Chelsea in the Premier League."
