Jose Mourinho didn't hide his joy after a successful first match in the Premier League. The Portuguese team defeated Burnley 3-1 on the road, and new addition Cesc Fabregas stood out in the "Blues" team, providing two assists and contributing to D.Costa's goal.
"When you get the player you most desire, it's hard to go wrong. Fabregas was our first choice for this position and I knew him well because he played in the Premier League for a long time," the specialist said.
Mourinho assured that the Spanish midfielder played in an unusual position for himself.
"At Barcelona, he was not a real number nine or a winger. I knew in which position he would best reveal himself and give us everything we need. Quick thinking in the center of the field - Cesc directs his teammates in the right direction," the coach rejoiced at the €36 million worth new signing.
"The whole team played very well, but I agree that Fabregas deserves the best player award, as together with Nemanja Matic, they completely controlled the game,"
