Chelsea wing-back Marcos Alonso who joined the Stamford Bridge outfit from Fiorentina during the summer, believes he has improved a lot as a player.

The Blues defender said: “I have obviously improved with time,” he says. “I’m a more mature player now. I think I did very well there and hopefully the fans can remember the good things I did during my time at the club.”

“I’ve had a few chances and it’s something I have to keep in my head because if I can help the team by scoring more goals I will,” he says.

“I’m always closer to the goal, which is important, and I’m looking to improve in terms of scoring goals and providing assists.” Said the Spaniard.
