The Chelsea No.19 spoke to us about his season so far, his midfield versatility and some ding-dong battles with Leeds during his loan spell with Derby County in the Championship two seasons ago.

'I obviously knew about the Chelsea-Leeds rivalry back in the past, before I went on loan to Derby,' he said. 'But then, when I was there and we played against them four times, the atmosphere was unbelievable every time.'It was fiery, competitive, and it definitely felt like a local derby, even though it wasn’t local. So Derby and Leeds had a similar rivalry and you could feel the tension every time we played.'

He also spoke about the team’s developing winning mentality, telling us: 'We have that kind of ruthlessness to kill games off, and take advantage of situations in games when last season we may have dropped points. We’ve been solid so far, and hopefully we can continue that.'

You can also hear from Ron Harris, who breaks down the Chelsea-Leeds rivalry for the uninitiated and relives the 1970 FA Cup final, in which he captained the Blues to a replay victory over our Yorkshire opponents.

Elsewhere, club historian Rick Glanvill continues his brick-by-brick history of Stamford Bridge, and there’s all the latest columns from around the club as Frank Lampard, Cesar Azpilicueta, Jon Harley, Ed Brand and Emma Hayes bring you up to date with their respective sides.
