Chelsea winger Pedro has revealed how Antonio Conte has brought out the best bits of him after a tough first season for the Blues last term.
The Spaniard has scored a fantastic six goals to his name in the league this campaign, and insists that the Italian tactician has crafted his role from last season to get him more into goal-scoring positions than before.
“I always think about how I can score a goal and help my team, so when I have a chance I try to score, I try to help my team – this is my job.
I’m playing a lot more on the inside now than I was last season. I am getting on the ball and receiving passes more centrally, and getting in more goalscoring positions as well – obviously my team-mates are helping me to do this.”

Following Pedro’s crucial contribution to the team, Chelsea’s last season’s Player of the Year Willian has spent most of the season spectating from the bench.
Among the goals Pedro has been a key figure attacking wise also in the build-up part, as he has created 19 chances this season assisting five goals as well.
