Jose Mourinho is ‘so happy’ with the squad at his disposal, with Chelsea having acted quickly to get bodies on board.
Changes were inevitable at Stamford
Bridge this summer, with Mourinho’s first season back at the helm having
failed to deliver major silverware. That issue has been addressed, with
a number of players moved in and out, reports Sky Sports.
Romelu Lukaku became the latest to depart
on Wednesday, as he completed a £28m move to Everton, but that sale was
sanctioned on the back of deals for Diego Costa and the returning
Didier Drogba.
It is not just up front that changes have
been made, though, with Filipe Luis drafted in to cover the loss of
Ashley Cole at left-back and World Cup winner Cesc Fabregas adding
creativity and experience to the midfield unit.
Mourinho is delighted to have completed
his business early and believes that a group which blends seasoned
professionals with exciting youngsters will be extremely competitive in
2014/15.
He said, “We are so happy with the squad we have.
“We feel that the correct squad is
exactly this type of squad we have, with people like Didier and John
Terry, but at the same time people like (Andreas) Christensen and
(Nathan) Ake.
“We have the squad we want and, I repeat,
the club was fantastic in the way they worked so hard and so fast to
get Diego, Filipe and Fabregas.”
