Chelsea midfielder, Ruben Loftus-Cheek has spoken up about his lack of playing time at the London club.
But the youngster is still upbeat despite a lack of playing time under manager Maurizio Sarri.
While there have been opportunities to do his bit in the cup competitions, he’s found playing time hard to come by in the Premier League.
“It’s hard, especially with the injuries I’ve had,”
“It’s important for me to stay mentally strong for the rest of the season, stay fit and work on my body so when I get the opportunities I can do well and help the team.
“I feel good now so hopefully that will stay and I can play to the best of my abilities.”
But Loftus-Cheek was pleased to get the opportunity to play in midweek against Dynamo Kiev in the Europa League.
“I really enjoyed it, it was my first 90 minutes in a while,”
“It was difficult at the end but I kept pushing to try and get the runs in my legs and I’m really happy with that.”
“It’s difficult when you’re not playing as much as you’d like and you’re not playing 90 regularly.
