Chelsea matchwinner Kai Havertz: I needed that goal

Chelsea matchwinner Kai Havertz was delighted to score in victory over West Ham.

Havertz says he needed a goal on the day.

He said afterwards: "These type of matches are 50/50 because the opponents only want counter-attacks and that's it. You had to be patient, calm, trust yourself. We remained calm after the 1-0 and we reversed the situation.

"I think I needed that goal, the team needed it. A great goal and a great victory for us.

"We are an easy group to join and we try to make it as easy as possible for them. We have to stick together and win again on Tuesday.

"I've seen the schedule and we have a lot of games this month. We need to stick together, be a strong group to play well in this period."
