🚨🔵 Jamie Carragher on Chelsea signing Granit Xhaka:
🗣️ “Finally, a manager with some guts has landed at Chelsea. Xabi Alonso isn’t here to please people, he’s here to fix a football team.”
🗣️ “He’s looked at this squad and realized one thing immediately—they have talent, but they don’t have enough leaders. You can’t build a winning team with kids alone.”
🗣️ “I don’t think the Chelsea owners will have a problem with the decisions he’s making because this is a manager who has earned the right to be trusted. For the first time in a long while, it actually feels like they’re letting the manager decide what the team needs.”
🗣️ “Since this transfer window opened, I haven’t seen Chelsea chasing every under-20 player available. That’s already telling me the recruitment has changed.”
🗣️ “You bring in someone like Granit Xhaka because he changes the mentality of a dressing room. He demands standards, he demands accountability and that’s exactly what Chelsea have been lacking.”
🗣️ “If this is how Xabi Alonso wants to build his Chelsea team, then I think the rest of the Premier League should start paying attention.”
🗣️ “Now I can finally put Chelsea back on the list of teams I’d be worried about. This feels like a football project now, not just a transfer project.”

"You n****s should be ashamed, the fact you had to bring those talks to get some decent plays, goodness graic'"
