Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek says he's happy to play anywhere for manager Thomas Tuchel.
While he still considers himself a central midfielder at heart, the 26-year-old is confident in his ability to perform anywhere on the pitch, having moved around frequently over the years.
"I played centre-back before when I was young, for a few games," he explained to the club's website. "I'm comfortable in most positions, I played a few different positions growing up, that's why I don't feel out of place playing anywhere.
"I trust my technique, I've always found reading the game quite easy, so he [Tuchel] sent me in at centre-back and I had no worries. When you're put there you have to do a job.
"I've always seen myself as a midfielder, I think that's where I can affect the game the most. I like to win the duels and bring my physicality to the game, go past people, be creative. I've always thought of myself as a no.8, getting up and down, being effective in both boxes.
"But I can play anywhere in midfield, and now obviously in defence. I played on the left or right of midfield in a 4-4-2 at Crystal Palace, I've played as an attacking midfielder for England, at Chelsea under Antonio Conte I played as a striker for a bit and I came on at Burnley at right wing-back last week."
