'Chelsea have everything to play for under Tuchel' - Azpilicueta backs Blues to compete for trophies with new manager

The Chelsea captain says it is in the club's "DNA" to win and is confident they can do so after their first Premier League win under the new boss

Cesar Azpilicueta is confident Chelsea can mount a credible challenge for silverware under new coach Thomas Tuchel.

The German took charge of the Stamford Bridge side this week when he replaced Frank Lampard after he was sacked on Monday.

After Tuchel's Premier League career began with a 0-0 draw against Wolves in midweek, he picked up his first win on Sunday as his side beat Burnley 2-0 at home.
