Juan Cuadrado: 'John Terry, Didier Drogba helping me adapt at Chelsea'

Juan Cuadrado says that the experience of John Terry and Didier Drogba in the dressing room is playing a vital role in Chelsea's hunt for the Premier League title.

Juan Cuadrado has revealed how John Terry and Didier Drogba have helped with his transition into the Chelsea dressing room following his move from Fiorentina earlier this year.

The Colombia international made the switch to Stamford Bridge during the January transfer window for a fee in the region of £27m following a drawn-out transfer process.

Cuadrado has had to be patient, making just four appearances in the Premier League so far, while Blues duo Drogba and Terry have helped ease him into English football during his short time at the club.

"Obviously [Terry and Drogba] have experience and are very important for all of us," he told Chelsea's official website. "We listen to them but we also have to give our own contribution. Every match is a final and we have to focus on those, be hungry and hopefully we can achieve it."

The 26-year-old had previously spent six years playing in Serie A with with Udinese and Fiorentina.
