Azpi is not just a work horse, he has a huge amount of talent

With the amount of work Azpilicueta does, it would be easy to write him off as a workhorse and someone who gives everything but does not really have the talent to back it up.

That would be as grave a miscalculation as paying £50 million for Fernando Torres.

Azpi has a huge amount of skill on the ball and never gets turned by a player with more pace.

He is positionally sound, great in the air and knows the defensive side of the game inside out.

Hs attacking game is coming on leaps and bounds and is set to only improve.

He never gives up on a lost cause – and lucky for Chelsea that he doesn’t given it was that attribute that saw them win at Anfield.
