Alee. 182 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Despite joining Chelsea at the age of just 18, January signing Franco Di Santo is already eyeing up a place in The Blues’ first-team. The Argentinian striker was thought to be interesting a number of Europe’s most prestigious clubs last month, but opted to swap his Chilean club Audax Italiano for Stamford Bridge. He is now looking to force his way into Avram Grant’s plans but is keen to keep his feet on the ground in the presence of his more experienced team-mates. "I think you always have to be positive. I have confidence. After some time, two months or a year, I will fight for the position with anybody,” he told Chilean newspaper El Mercurio: "If I compare myself to them, the difference is huge, but it is because they have been playing for ten years. I know I cannot do the same as they do now, but I have some things they don't have - I am young!" The Argentina Under-20 starlet was also quick to sing the praises of his new club, claiming his previous perceptions of some players were quickly dispelled. "People here are so kind," said Di Franco. "I used to watch them on TV and told myself they would be arrogant but it is totally different when you are inside. "Despite all they have won, they treat you like one of them and you have to treat them the same. If not, they get angry. "I never imagined I would be here watching Michael Ballack, [Claudio] Pizarro or Frank Lampard playing pool in front of me. Being with them and spending time with them is unbelievable. "They help you in whatever you need. Whatever they can give to you, they do. I really don't want to wake up from this dream." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 He has a canny resemblance to Ronaldinho Gotta do something about those teeth He's gonna be learning his stuff from probably 3 world class strikers and Pizarro. So he's bound to pick up a lot of useful things along the way during his development. Cant wait to see him get a run out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 You're right. Training with the likes of Anelka, Shevchenko, Ballack, Drogba, Lampard and Pizarro is going to do nothing but inspire him. I hope the kid does well and I'd love to see him get a run out against Huddersfield, I honestly would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byatt 0 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Good luck to the kid in all honesty, i don't expect him to play at all this season if i'm honest but if he gets a game it most likely will be against Huddersfield in the FA Cup, from what i've read and heard about this kid though he's probably more similar to Pizarro than he is any of our other strikers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
