Chelsea ace Eden Hazard has told manager Antonio Conte he's not crazy about playing as a "false 9".
Hazard was employed in the role for their 1-1 draw with Champions League opponents Barcelona.
Hazard said: “To be honest, I like the role as a false '9'.
“But in games like that against quality opposition like Barcelona, it's difficult. You don't get a lot of balls. I might have touched 25 balls that night and 15 of them were flying toward my head.
“That is not really playing to my qualities. I won some aerial duels against Gerard Pique, and that's not bad.
"But if I had to choose, I prefer to play like I did in the last 10 minutes, which was out wide. But it's the manager who has the final word.
“On the wing I feel more comfortable. That's my place."
For the 1-1 draw, Chelsea were unlucky not to win but Hazard said: “In games like that you have to be 100% focused. One error, one goal.
“We should have scored more. We complicated it ourselves. A draw is a bad result. We won't be able to think defensively in Barcelona. If we only think about defending, we'll be in a lot of trouble. We will go to try to win. We have to win, we have to score."
