Rudiger: I never joined Chelsea expecting guaranteed start

Published on: 16 December 2017

Antonio Rudiger is happy with his first months at Chelsea.

Rudiger played in their 3-1 win at Huddersfield midweek and the defence he was part of looked set to keep a clean sheet until the home side scored in the final seconds, and the fact that can happen is one of the Premier League characteristics Rudiger lists

"The physicality and that the teams never give up," he told chelseafc.com. "Even 2-0 is very dangerous, you never know.

"For me it was clear when I came from Rome to here that I would not play every game. Also I did not play all the games in Rome, it is normal that the rotation has to be there if you are playing in so many competitions.

"The coach handles it very well, the doctors handle it very well and almost every player gets a lot of games, so it is a good balance."
