Chelsea defender Andreas Christiansen is adamant they're back on track under new manager Thomas Tuchel.

Tuchel's men beat Newcastle on Monday night to land their fourth Premier League win on the spin and move into a Champions League place for the first time since December.

Christensen, back in the side after losing his place under Frank Lampard, said: “We had a little dip. But I think when the group came together we had one goal

“It is not just aiming for top three or top four whatever, we just wanted to get back on track and we knew if we did that anything was possible. At the moment we are getting the wins. We might not play beautiful football for 90 minutes, but we are getting there.

“Manchester City are flying at the moment. But again now we are in the top four, we obviously want to stay there, and make sure we play Champions League again. “I have played four games in a row now, it has been a while since I have done that.

“All the manager says is just be comfortable. If you don't need to play the ball, you don't have to. Wait for someone to come and take the ball, don't take last second decisions, know what you're going to do and make it happen.

“He has basically told us to be comfortable. To believe in ourselves."
