"We’re learning every day," Reece James told Chelsea TV after the win over Nottingham Forest.
"We’re still young and during the season we’ve had a few off days, but on the whole, we’ve improved and we’re coming strong towards the end of the season.
"Europe is one of the highest levels in club football and we’re one of the biggest clubs in club football, so we want to be pushing each season to be knocking on the door for the Champions League. That’s the aim."
Chelsea will not be in the Champions League next season, although there is a chance for them to be back in European competitions.
The Blues' chances to return to the Champions League will increase significantly if James manages to overcome his injury worries after finally having surgery to deal with his hamstring issue.
