Ramires admits that he is "very happy" to reach 100 games for Chelsea.

Chelsea midfielder Ramires has revealed his delight at making 100 appearances for the Premier League club.

The 25-year-old joined the Blues from Benfica in 2010, but it had been suggested that he would struggle to come to terms with the physicality of English football.

However, the Brazilian played a key role in their Champions League success last season and has been one of their best performers thus far in the league.

"I'm very happy to have reached 100 games for Chelsea. I arrived at the club at a time when people still said that Brazilians struggled in England. I'm glad that I helped make this vision change," Ramires told Terra.

"I have only had good moments here. I can't deny the biggest ones were the Champions League title and the goal against Barcelona in the semis."

Ramires has 32 international caps to his name.
