'Everybody in the squad is important, everyone has started from zero': Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta insists all players have a clean slate under Thomas Tuchel after Marcos Alonso is called in from the cold to score against Burnley

Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta has stated every player in the Chelsea squad will be given a chance under new boss Thomas Tuchel.

Defenders Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso rewarded the German's faith in them by scoring a goal each in a comfortable 2-0 win against Burnley on Sunday afternoon.

The Spaniard has generally been behind Reece James in the pecking order this season, while Alonso made his first Premier League appearance since September and marked it with a fine finish to seal the game.
