Chelsea defender Cesar Azpilicueta headed in Chelsea’s third goal during our 6-0 thrashing of Qarabag on Tuesday night.
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte admits Cesar Azpilicueta is one of the best central defenders in the world.
“Last season Azpi was one of the most important players for us,” Conte said.
“I think in this position, as a centre back he is one of the best of the world. I think this about him. He is very good with the ball and without it.
“He is a fantastic guy, he is always positive. In the training session he works in a fantastic way. Azpi is a fantastic player, for a coach to have him is a dream.”
