Chelsea midfielder Kai Havertz says he now feels settled in the Premier League.

There is no doubt Havertz now feels comfortable in English football and with life off the field.

"It has all gone very fast," he told the official Chelsea website. "I came here two years ago and hoped to get as many games as possible so I'm happy but I hope there are a lot more games to come.

"It's a very different league than I played in before but I expected it to be like this with very high-intensity football and the opponents always very aggressive. The league is very good so you have to play with a lot of courage and be brave.

"I feel I'm settled in very well now and I feel very good. The beginning was tough when I arrived but I adapted maybe after six to 12 months. I knew before that it takes a while but overall I'm happy now about the two years."

Havertz feels ready for today's derby against West Ham.

"It's great," he admitted. "Of course there are a lot of tough matches, even for example when you play Liverpool or Man United. It feels the same because between every club there are a lot of rivalries and especially here in London.

"It's nice to have so many clubs that come from London. The derbies are always good games for us and to play at home now for this game is also nice and gives us a big push. I always like to play the big matches and I think we all enjoy that."
