Ross Barkley revealed why it is perfect to play at Chelsea

Ross Barkley believes Chelsea have given him the perfect platform to relaunch his England career and he is determined to make up for lost time. 'These things happen in football and you have got to take them,' he said. 'I was injured and then I wasn't in the squad. But you have just got to react in the right, positive way. I feel like I have done that. It's important I let my football do the talking now. 'I have got a platform. I'm at a massive club in Chelsea and we are going to challenge for all the titles this season. I believe that. I want to let my feet do the talking for my club and if that happens, I believe I will be back on the international scene sooner rather than later. 'I haven't spoken to (Southgate). I'm sure he is focused on the squad he is picking. I have had injuries and it's all about me going out to show what I can do for Chelsea. It's down to me to show I can be that (creative) player. I believe I can. I will keep improving - and I will show I am that type of player.' 'The ambition is to add goals and assists to what I am doing. I'm hoping to add a lot more goals as the season goes on.' The 24-year-old was is in no doubt that Hazard is at the peak of his powers. 'He is not a selfish player,' said Barkley. 'He is happy getting two assists and the team winning. He is adding goals and he keeps improving. What did against Liverpool, honestly he's doing it every day in training so it's no surprise to us. 'What a goal! He's one of the best players in the world and he shows it (constantly). But he's been showing it for the last five or six years and he is establishing himself in the top three players in the world. At the minute, he is the best player in the world, I believe.'
