MAGIC THREE
Hakim Ziyech has appointed three Chelsea players he is looking forward to playing with.
The 27-year-old, however, made his garter debut in a 3–3 draw with Southampton after recovering from injury.
He joins an incredibly advanced line after Frank Lampard’s summer madness.
Informed via the subway, Ziyech said: “I have two other options, three, depending on what the coach thinks. For me, it doesn’t matter where I play.
“Kai [Havertz] and Timo [Werner] are two wonderful and have shown it in the afterlife with what they did in their clubs beyond.
“Christian [Pulisic] is also one of the greatest talents. Everyone has a lot of quality and Christian has been here longer than we have. You’ve noticed what he’s capable of doing on the field. It’s just a crazy end.
“For me, it’s exciting to paint with them and I don’t care where I play on the field. “
SILVA UNDERSTANDING
Thiago Silva shared his own about Petr Cech’s surprise inclusion in the Premier League.
Despite retiring at the end of the 2018–19 season, Frank Lampard has registered him as a player for the next campaign.
And his veteran colleague Silva talked about his “beautiful story. “
He told Esporte Interativo: “He’s a guy we shouldn’t give up on.
“His story is very footballous. We talked a little bit, he speaks a little French, so we have a little more discussion than usual. “
“And the other day I saw him exercise and asked him why he exercised, if it was because he liked it or if he had a chance to be with us.
‘He said he was training, so if he had to, whatever the opportunity, he might just play.
“I think it ended his career, I was even surprised at that moment,” he told me. But he’s a guy who has a brilliant career at Chelsea, he’s an idol.
“And given your motivation to help us when possible, we’re glad you’re here. In our daily lives, he is a very vital guy, he talks a lot to each and every player.
“Your story speaks for itself, we only have it as a reference and we do our job. I think he’s ready. From the education I’ve seen, he’s well prepared. “
ED FORT
Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy has revealed that he nearly left football when he was out of work.
The Blues Stopper’s wife pregnant with her son when the Senegalese foreigner thought about hanging up the gloves.
After his career at French Minnows Cherbourg in 2011, Mfinishy spent three seasons there before taking a year off at the end of his contract to “contemplate his future”.
Describing his time of unemployment, he said, “At that moment, when I was given my agent’s message at the time, I started returning to the club where I was educated when I was young.
“I with the reservists there each and every morning. In the afternoon, I would go to the gym where I would go to the box with my brother to practice my shooting stop.
“I had unemployment aid at the time, so I may be completely in football.
“But it’s incredibly complicated and my wife is expecting our first baby.
“Unemployment assistance will not be enough for us. We needed something else, so I started looking for another job.
Then I had a chance to move on to Marseilles and I had a check there.
“It was just a matter of giving it your all to have a chance to sign up for this club. Luckily it worked for me and when it worked it was a relief to me.

NO SPAIN WITHOUT A GAME
Chelsea are in a position to let flop goalkeeper Kepa pass as a loan and could send him back to Seville, according to reports.

If you know other people or have a big name, you’ll be back at work. Quality issues with me. “
Ziyech nevertheless had the final say when he helped Morocco succeed at the 2018 World Cup when the Netherlands did not qualify.
Yesterday, the Star of Blues added: “I what I did at the time.
“It was simply the way I saw things and I’m not afraid to have my opinion and I speak with my heart.
“I don’t care what people think of me. You can take it any way you want.
“At the end of the day, I have confidence in myself and still believe in my own strengths, so I didn’t really mind what other clubs and other people think.
“If you play on the field, that’s why top clubs buy you or not. “
