Nicolas Jackson and #CFC recruitment appreciation tweet, not seen a striker with this level of hold up and pure Football ability in years. The way he also stretches defences but doesn’t always make the same run is so impressive. The run at the end was literally in the mid 90’s mins and still had that extreme burst of pace, £30m bargain.

“Mistakes happen, we’re all human, except the legend Cole Palmer”
“One day I help, the next day they help me, this is how we grow as a team” #CFC
John Terry on Jose Mourinho :
“He used to tell me I’m not good enough and I’ll go and sign someone else”
“And then at night he would message me randomly saying I love you, your my captain and never forget that”
“He was the best by a mile”
Mark Goldbridge on Chelsea sales :
“I think what it boils down to is people are jealous”
“There’s a lot of clubs out there that want to be competitive, they see Chelsea as weak because they had a bad season and now they see Chelsea as a threat again because Chelsea are able to go and buy again, because they’re selling very very well again”
“Is there any reason Jordan Henderson couldn’t be sold to Saudi Arabia? Son? Fred? Mctominay? No there isn’t, everyone can do it, Chelsea just have more players to do it with”

🚨 Breaking: Enzo Fernandez
“When I joined, I knew I was coming to a very big institution like Chelsea, that was in a difficult situation, but the owner showed me his project, what he had in mind for the future, and I think today we’re finding that, so I’m very happy.”
"The first years were hard for me, I had a bad time. I really wasn’t feeling well, I wasn’t okay with myself. I didn’t feel comfortable during matches. I had to start training more, preparing more during the week, and doing extra training sessions”
"Honestly, I think the pace of the Premier League isn’t played anywhere else in the world. I couldn’t cope, in the first year, I felt like I just couldn’t keep up. I wasn’t feeling well, and I even suffered injuries and everything, That’s when the work began”
“I started contacting trainers until I found the right one. I felt good for two or three weeks, and over time, I started seeing results and feeling good on the pitch.”
"Nowadays, I think I’ve achieved something very good on a personal level this season. And very good things in terms of assists, goals, and titles with the club, that’s what I’d been looking for since I arrived."
