Cesc Fabregas: 'Chelsea not at their best against Leicester City'

Cesc Fabregas admits that Chelsea were made to work hard for their 2-0 win over Leicester on Saturday.

Cesc Fabregas has admitted that Chelsea were not at their best during Saturday's 2-0 win over Leicester City in the Premier League.

The Blues found life difficult against the Foxes at Stamford Bridge before second-half goals from Diego Costa and Eden Hazard saw them claim the points.

"I think we weren't at our best in the first half. We just had to wake up, push higher up the pitch and we got a deserved win," Fabregas told Sky Sports News.

"They wanted it more than us and we realised we had to step it up a couple of gears."

Chelsea are back in action next Saturday when they travel to Everton in the Premier League.
