'He's very fortunate to be at Chelsea... I don't think he's a great defender': Neil Warnock suggests Blues captain Cesar Azpilicueta is 'a bit LUCKY' to have had his trophy-laden career, after the Club World Cup sealed his clean sweep

Neil Warnock has slated Cesar Azpilicueta's defensive capabilities and said that the Chelsea captain is 'lucky' to have made it in football.

Azpilicueta guided Chelsea to their 2-1 victory over Palmeiras in the FIFA Club World Cup final on Saturday evening. As a result, Azpilicueta has won every major honour available to the Blues during his tenure.

The 32-year-old has officially won the Premier League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, Champions League, Europa League and most recently the Club World cup while playing for the Blues.
