Willy Caballero says he's ready to step up for Chelsea in Sunday's Carabao Cup final against Manchester City.
Chelsea's first-choice keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga is a major doubt for the showpiece occasion on Sunday having suffered a hamstring injury.
Caballero said: “I don't know how Kepa is today. I am behind him (in the pecking order), but if he cannot play I am ready.
“I did it (played against City) in the Community Shield. It was a big surprise to hear all the supporters from City remind me. It's going to be another great situation for me.
“I will always really appreciate Manchester City for giving me the opportunity to play in England."
He added: “For sure it's going to be different. It doesn't matter the score last time – it does matter what we did, what we did wrong.
“Also we can't forget we won against them at Stamford Bridge (in December). So we have one fantastic game against them, another horrendous game. In this case it's a final. We have to play as a final, every single ball from the first minute.
“We have done a lot of team talks after a lot of bad results, but we just needed to win against Malmo to recover our feelings. Hopefully after this victory we'll go to Wembley with new sensations.
“They have improved a lot (since I left). But it is just a question of victories and results. They started last season winning in the first minute of the first half almost every game and they grow up with a lot of confidence for the strikers and the midfielders.
“It is easy to run when you are top of the League. Of course they are better because they won trophies last season. It's going to be a tough game, we are going to have to work hard."
