Chelsea defender Reece James says adjusting his role alongside Cesar Azpilicueta has been good for him.
Azpilicueta has been tucked inside by manager Thomas Tuchel, with James played as a wing-back.
James told the club's website: "He's been at the club for a number of years and is a club legend. Playing in front of him is great and knowing I've got him behind me is a very good feeling as well. I always feel safe and secure on the pitch.
"Ever since I came into the senior squad, right from the start, he's always been supporting and helping and guiding me and he still does that now.
"Yeah, it's taken a little bit of getting used to, to be fair. I'm not used to my centre-backs running past me, but I've played enough and it's become normal now.
"It just comes back to understanding and I think as a team we're growing as well. Game by game we're getting stronger. Working together and working as a team is helping a lot. How hard we work in training is reflected on the pitch."
