'My legs were really feeling it in those last minutes': Chalobah makes admission over FA Cup performance

Trevoh Chalobah got his first start this season in the 3-2 win over Leeds in the FA Cup as the defender made his way back from injury.

Chalobah started the game at centre-back but was later moved to right back in the final 15 minutes of the game, which he admits were the hardest for him.

"My legs were really feeling it in those last minutes," said the Chelsea defender. "Honestly, I was praying there was extra time! Obviously, Conor then gets the goal and the game is done. I had to thank him for that."

"It's a role I'm comfortable in and I'll play wherever I'm needed," he added on playing right back.

"I've played in the middle of a three, on the right under Thomas Tuchel, I played on the left in France too. It's just about what is best for the team.

"I felt good in that Brentford game. The legs felt stronger. Once you get back into the flow of matches, it becomes easier."
