The left wing-back scored his second goal of the season in the victory at the King Power Stadium, a goal which was especially special for the England international, as it came against his former club.

After the game, Ben reflected on that goal, which certainly put a smile on his face, and the team's overall showing in the East Midlands.

‘I think it was probably one of the most enjoyable goals for myself of my career. It’s no bad blood at all, I really enjoy coming back here and seeing all of the old faces that I used to see all the time day to day,’ Chilwell said.

‘But when it’s that 90 minutes on the pitch, of course I’m going to give everything to win the game for Chelsea, and thankfully today I contributed with a goal.’

Chilwell also paid special mention to the travelling supporters, who were behind the team from minute one.

‘I loved the way the fans got behind us. They have done all season, it’s been a difficult season, but they’ve stuck with us and today to hear them singing that song [won the European Cup] the whole game was nice for me, gave me a little bit of a boost.

‘Then the scenes at the end, seeing all the fans who travelled up the country to support us, thankfully we gave them three points. It was just a good moment at the end to celebrate with them, to show that togetherness that we all have,’ he added.

Chelsea still have 12 games left to play in the Premier League meaning 36 points are still up for grabs. Chilwell says the squad are not thinking about the long run, but instead the next task which will come against Sean Dyche’s Everton on Saturday.

'It’s easy to get complacent. Three wins, but we still know we’ve still got so much work to do this season, a lot to build on. There are positives but there are things we can work on from today and that’s what we are going to do. We have a week until Everton now,' Ben stated.

'Every game now between here and the end of the season is going to have to be that same mindset, a must-win match. We’ve still got big aspirations for the season, that is where we are at.

'We are going game by game. Whether you are at the top, or where we are now. We have a week to work now. Of course, we are going to enjoy that win on Saturday [vs Leicester], a great win, but we’ve got a lot of big games coming up so we need to make sure we are ready.

'Coming off the back of what was a massive win for us on Tuesday, it was equally important in our heads before the game to win today. We didn’t want to come here after Tuesday's game and put in a bad performance.'
