Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas has insisted that he is enjoying his football despite coming under recent scrutiny for his performances.

The Spaniard claimed 15 assists in his first six months since joining from Barcelona in the summer, but has set up one in his last five Premier League games.

However, the 27-year-old is not fazed by his recent dip and is happy to be featuring regularly for the league leaders, according to the Daily Express.

He said: "I am going through a great moment, both personally and athletic. I have no reason not to be happy. I enjoy everything that happens to me.

"I am practically playing every minute for my team and that's what makes me happy. To be important is fundamental. Now we have to fight hard for the Premier League to end a great year."

Fabregas and Chelsea are next in action against Stoke City at Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening.
