I’ve spoken rather a lot on Moises Caicedo and why he struggled to settle at the beginning of his Chelsea profession.
I at all times rated him extremely and that is why I ignored the value we paid to signal him. I knew he would come good. Watching him at Brighton, you knew there was no manner that he can be down for lengthy.
Fairly merely, it was the strain of becoming a member of an enormous membership. However not simply any outdated huge membership, the strain of becoming a member of a membership that he completely loves. Simply assume again to that video of his proud Mom celebrating the transfer, that’s how a lot it meant to him and his household. All of them love Chelsea. It was actually a dream come true for the younger participant, and the strain of it was a bit a lot.
Add that together with the very fact he had an enormous price ticket over his head and wanted to adapt and settle in to new environment, all of it performed a component in him having a gradual and difficult begin to life as a Chelsea participant. It’s fairly pure actually, simply have a look at Kalidou Koulibaly as one other instance of this.
However Caicedo quickly got here by way of it, and this season he has been colossal and simply our greatest and most constant participant thus far. I completely like to see it.
“It’s a dream come true,” Caicedo mentioned on the Chelsea web site this week. “It’s an awesome feeling. You at all times put together for this second and now you’re right here at Stamford Bridge along with your followers and profitable video games. You’re serving to the workforce and it’s superb – generally I am going house and simply smile.”
“This season, thus far, we’re doing fantastically, however for positive, all of the gamers, the pinnacle coach, and the employees need us to do the identical for the remainder of the season.”
He additionally spoke on that robust interval when he first arrived.
“If you come to an enormous membership you at all times must know that persons are going to speak about you,” he continued. “It was me in that second [after joining] and I suffered a little bit bit. However that is soccer and in soccer, this occurs rather a lot.
“It’s good to be sturdy, to have a robust mentality, and to have good folks round you that can assist you. I’ve that; my folks assist me in each second and I’m so joyful about that.
“I feel he [Maresca] is proud of me as a result of I at all times attempt to present him I wish to assist the workforce. He can see that in each sport. I’m joyful working with him, he’s serving to us rather a lot. All of the gamers and employees are proud of how we’re doing now.”
It’s so superb to see him doing effectively. He’s such a lovable character and a key participant for this workforce who we have to be on his sport greater than most. Good on ya, Moises!
