Xabi Alonso’s message to Chelsea fans: “Chelsea is one of the biggest clubs in world football and it fills me with immense pride to become manager of this great club”.
“From my conversations with the ownership group and sporting leadership, it is clear we share the same ambition. We want to build a team capable of competing consistently at the highest level and fighting for trophies.
‘There is great talent in the squad and huge potential at this football club and it will be my great honour to lead it. Now the focus is on hard work, building the right culture and winning trophies”.

You’re making a 1st impression that you may not get a chance to overcome in your match
