Cesar Azpilicueta using Club World Cup "hurt" for shot at Chelsea immortality

Cesar Azpilicueta arrived at Chelsea feeling intimidated by all of the club legends in the dressing room.

But now Chelsea ’s longest-serving player could do something not even the likes of Frank Lampard, John Terry and Didier Drogba achieved during their glittering careers.

Azpilicueta, 32, is looking to complete a clean sweep of medals by winning the Club World Cup in addition to the Premier League title, Champions League, Europa League, European Super Cup, FA Cup and League Cup.

Chelsea’s European Cup winning team of 2012 lost the Club World Cup final to Corinthians and Azpilicueta came on as a substitute having joined the club that summer, soon after they lifted the Champions League trophy.

Azpilicueta said: “I think everyone tries to create their own history at the club.

"Through the years we have seen many world-class players who have tried to help to increase the trophy cabinet of this club and when the time arrives, we want to make the most of it.

"And now it is true we have our own opportunity to create history in the club, to win a trophy that no one has won it at Chelsea and hopefully we are the ones who can do it.

“It’s very difficult to be in this tournament and after 10 years you realise how difficult it is. We lost [the] final then against Corinthians and maybe, I don’t know, I had a different feeling, it was my first season, we were in every competition, maybe it looks easier than it [is].

“And then with time you realise how difficult it is, first of all just qualifying. So we have to make the most of it, starting with tomorrow’s game. Hopefully that bad experience will help.

“We’re really motivated. Losing in 2012 hurt a lot. This the only competition the club didn’t win. To win it for first time
