I swear the word 'system' has appeared in Ziyech's, Werner's and now Chilwell's official club interivew..?

Chilwell on his injury...

 

[Fernando 6,376]

Good buy for me. 

Looking forward to seeing him play when he is fit.

Fair play to The Athletic - Simon Johnson called it in December.

[Puliiszola 519]

Good signing. Hope he proves his doubters hopelessly wrong.

I think Matt Law beat him to it even earlier, saying in October-November last year that the club are targeting Chillwell for a summer move.

Both good sources either way.

Over the line finally. Hope he turns out great and solves our Left back problem for years....

Probably.

The main thing here though is Lampard sure sounds like a very good 1-on-1 communicator. All 3 signings so far said they spoke with him and bought into what he's trying to do.

Also, it's nice to see a manager getting involved with the signings - helped by the fact it's their first choice target - rather than being stand-off-ish and expect the club to do the convincing bit.

Don’t know what to think of this, good thing he’s young and experienced. I tought he was allready 27 or something.

[ulsterchelsea 3,213]

Not reading this thread because it'll be filled with hate and accountants as per. Glad he's signed. Good luck fella

[Azul 1,615]

Let's hope he's the leftback we desperately need! We have to back him no matter what, he is still young and can become even better.

Certainly! It inspires confident for the players. 

Lampard taking a cue from Jose's book of man management

Welcome to Chelsea Football Club Chilwell  i hope he can settle in fast and that he has a lot of success here and helps us move forward. Great times for the club, this transfer window has been amazing.

[DDA 9,570]

Welcome Ben. Good luck lad. KTBFFH!

Amazing signing for me, Frank's clear choice, Frank also no exactly what he wants from him and knows exactly what Ben's role will be. Are frank may not have the experience but boy can he get a player here. He's building one hell of a team, and more importantly this is HIS team not the boards.
