Moses loving new Chelsea role

Victor Moses is loving life at Chelsea again after being converted into a wing-back under Antonio Conte.

The Nigeria international joined Chelsea from Wigan in 2012, but failed to live up to the high expectations at Stamford Bridge as a winger.

He has been shipped out on loan to Liverpool, Stoke City and West Ham United over the course of the past three seasons, but was given a chance to prove his worth again following the arrival of Conte as the club s new manager.

Moses, 25, has impressed with a number of fine performances down the right and he is delighted with his new role.

I m feeling happy, I m feeling excited and right now I m looking forward to every game, Moses told Sky Sports.

I have not played there before but I have just got to listen to what the manager asks me to do in that position, and the way he wants me to do it.

Every game we play I just want to keep on improving. The more games you play, the more experience you get in that position. I m really relishing it at the moment and enjoying it.

It s very important to understand your team-mates. I have got Cesar Azpilicueta there, the spare right-back, who is behind me, and he communicates with me and really helps me out to make sure I am in the right position.

It s very good to link up with Pedro or Willian, too. They know when it s time for me to go or when not to go. We speak to each other and we look at each other s movement to make sure we are doing the right thing on the pitch.

Defensively we all work as a unit in training and every day in training the manager is on top of us to make sure we are solid. He s also very helpful on the touchline. He talks to you to make sure you re in the right position.
