Chelsea winger Hudson-Odoi: Ziyech and I developing good partnership

Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi feels he and Hakim Ziyech are developing a good understanding.

The two wingers linked up frequently throughout their 4-0 FA Cup victory over Morecambe, switching play across the pitch, with one such combination resulting in our third goal as Hudson-Odoi latched on Ziyech's chipped pass over the back line before beating the goalkeeper.

"Hakim and I have that little partnership where we know one another's capabilities and what one can do," explained Hudson-Odoi. "As soon as he got the ball I made the run because I knew he can find those passes. It was a great ball by him to find me in behind."

He also told chelseafc.com: "I'm happy with myself, I'm happy with the team, everybody is excited. We want to be and do better every game so we are going to keep trying in training and keep working hard.

"It's a big competition and we want to go as far as possible. We try our best in every game we play and we are delighted to go through to the next round."
