Of course it is going to be difficult for any player to get in the Chelsea side no matter who they are.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I really want to play in Chelsea.
The Premier League is so difficult.
But doesn't it seem like Chelsea's sort of being pimped out in some weird sort of way?
Being in the Premier League would be a dream come true.
The likes of Frank Lampard and John Terry at Chelsea, English players with proper status at a club, they're going to be like the dodo bird. Extinct.
At 21, Real Madrid or Barcelona would have been more difficult for me. If I play well enough at Chelsea, I could win my place in the starting team, and my priority is to play.
If we had a starting XI that no one could argue about it wouldn't say a lot for English football. We'd probably be on a downward spiral. It's good that people have different ideas about who should play.
I had a hard time at Chelsea mainly because I was injured much of the time. Every time I recovered from one injury I seemed to get a new one and it set me back again.
There are a lot of teams that don't want to play, that only want to defend against Barcelona, and that makes it difficult. We're always looking for the open space. A lot of times we'll face six defenders and four midfielders.
To play for Chelsea is a blessing.
