Xabi Alonso on Chelsea’s training ground

 “Oh, it's brilliant! The setting, it's wonderful. The standards of the club are of the highest quality. The structure is great, but you need to give soul, you need to give purpose, you need to bring good work, good energy, positiveness, that we are in a nice place to work, and we have all the ingredients for that.

So, I’m looking forward to it. Tomorrow, I will be with the guys, and you start creating this connection, because this is all about the human connections, for them to feel good. And when you feel good, normally you perform well.”
