Video of first training session.

Marko Marin with number 21 on his shorts, so he is the one who will carry Kalous legendary number!

so Kakuta takes 21, KdB takes 14 and Hazard 17. . Hope Kakuta doesnt go out on loan again.

I thought Kakuta has 21.

Edit, just spotted that.

Not that it really matters, but Kakuta has 31, Hazard 17, KdB 14 & Marin 21.

Modric will take the number 14 shirt of De Bruyne also.

Hope we win vs. Milan + PSG.

I hate losing during Pre-Season. Doesn't set a good tone for the coming season.

Means absolutely nothing if you ask me. Last season we won all of our pre-season matches without conceding a single goal and yet our team was shit for most of the season. If memory serves, we also had a terrible pre-season in Carlo's first year, yet went on to win the double.

The sheer scale of Cobham is incredible, look to the far right of this image, the pitches go on for miles.

Is that Kalas I see in that top picture? It looks more like Kalas, but I assume it's Marin.

Absolutely love Kalas anyway. Hope he makes it here.

Its starting to get exciting all of a sudden with these first training session images of Hazard, de bruyne and marin practicing, as well as some of our players who returned from loan.

Wasnt too sure or didnt really care about benayoun, but after seeing that video and seeing him in the chelsea shirt again, if he makes it into our foreign player allotment, then he will be a good player to have off the bench.
