Chelsea winger Pedro feels he is a different player following his move to Stamford Bridge from Barcelona - highlighting increased playing time as a key factor in his quick adjustment.

The Spain international moved from Camp Nou to the Premier League champions in August having found first-team opportunities limited at Barca.

With two goals in eight games, Pedro has enjoyed a strong start despite the holders beginning their campaign in sluggish fashion with six defeats in all competitions.

Speaking to SeFutbol, he explained: "When someone gets to play, they gain rhythm, trust, and you're happier, you try out more things.

"Leaving Barca was tough for me, but I'm happy with the change.

"[The Chelsea players have] been a great support to me, the adaptation has been quick given I already knew them from [the national team] and they've treated me well, showing me how the club works. 

"The truth is that the experience has been great."
