“For sure. It’s an exciting project for the club.
“Unfortunately this season hasn’t been to Chelsea’s standards. But everyone wants to go in this way, the way of success and winning titles.
“I hope this club will again fight in this direction. Let’s see where I will be but I hope that this is a change for the club, that is most important.”
“It was the purpose of the surgery, to come back strong.
“At the moment I feel good, hopefully it’ll carry on like this. For the last weeks I’ve been playing I’ve felt very good.
“Hopefully I can carry on for the rest of the season and hopefully the most difficult part is behind me, and I’m able to forget it – enjoying football again and wins again. Hopefully more success [too].”
