Chelsea boss Graham Potter is delighted with the sudden form of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The veteran striker struck in their Champions League win at AC Milan.
Potter remarked: “We’ve not done anything special, it’s all down to him. He has been building his fitness up. We spoke before that he came from a difficult summer so it’s been a case of building up his match minutes up and the more he gets the stronger he gets, and the more we understand him the more he understands us. Everyone knows his quality and it’s great for him. He looks like he is enjoying his football and scoring goals is important.”
Asked about the confidence now amongst the players, Potter stated: “It’s hard for me to say no to that as I didn’t really have any expectations. I’ve been in football long enough to know that it’s hard to expect and predict football results. The important thing is the quicker you get to know the players the quicker you can build trust and understand them the better. But it is down to the guys, the players.
“They have really responded, been very honest and responsible and they want to do well. Our job is to try to help them and to try to help them enjoy their football. There is pressure and we want to win, but if they are enjoying their football there is quality in the team.”
