Christensen was an ever-present in ex-Chelsea boss Antonio Contes defence, but under Maurizio Sarri, he is behind Antonio Rudiger, David Luiz and Gary Cahill in the pecking order.And the 22-year-old cast doubt over his Stamford Bridge future last month.Theres a difference from last season,” Christensen admitted. I played a lot of games but this season hasnt been like that. Its always difficult for a player but well see what happens.If you asked every player thats not playing if theyre happy, theyll say no. Everyone wants to play but you know I cant do anything but train and do my best when I get the opportunity.I have to perform well to show him [Sarri] that he can count on me. You dont want to sit around and wait for it you want to play straight away thats why we play football.Not playing is not fun but its a different situation to last season.
