Window looking positive for us. Will be plenty of outgoings over the next few weeks and all the targets seem to be very good. A top midfielder, LB, Lacroix and Stones would be a very good window alongisde Rogers and Palestra.

🚨 Gittens on Chelsea getting rid of Garnacho and whether that was on his mind:

“I just look at myself. I don’t look at anyone else. I just focus on myself and try to be better for myself.”

“ want to succeed here. I need to show people what I can do. I will keep working hard. I have shown glimpses, small bits. But this season will be a good season.”

(SJohnsonSport) #CFC

🚨 Gittens on Alonso:

“Does he have an aura? Yeah, a bit because he was a top player back in the day and now a top coach. But he’s a very nice guy, he talks to us individually on what we can work on, as a player that’s all you want”

“He told me “keep being positive, taking on players, creating chances and pushing myself to the maximum”.

(SJohnsonSport)

🚨 Gittens: “We want to win everything - that is our ambition; to win the Premier League, the FA Cup and win anything that we're in.

“Bringing in a player like Morgan will hopefully raise the bar to win titles”

“I feel 92% fitness wise, In these pre-season games I will keep going, keep pushing myself, put more minutes in my legs." (BobbyVincentFL)
