Batshuayi: Chelsea is a big family

Chelsea man of the moment, Mitchy Batshuayi has narrated his Chelsea experience so far, remembering a lot of sadness, fun and above all the unity and family atmosphere that enabled then comfortably win the English Premier League.

Batshuayi, who has scored two goals in Chelsea's last two matches said: “There were a lot of frustrations, but this is a big club, with a lot of good players. I need to understand it a bit too. I’m a bit younger than some of the other guys. I can only keep on working hard. We have a very good squad, with lots of good players. Lovely and humble lads too. Chelsea feels like a big family. When you can work in those conditions, day in, day out. That’s magnificent. Of course there were frustrations because I didn’t play a lot.”

“So enjoying myself with the teammates wasn’t always that simple. But I also understood that I had some to work to do. But I’m happy. My team-mates have always been supporting me. They encouraged my (sic) to grab my chance and advised me not to let my head down. They are happy for me now. That’s very positive.”

"this is a lesson for me. A period that’s been very hard for me, but I’ve also learned a lot. I’ve made a lot of progress. As a man, mentally, but also physically. And tactically too. That’s a given with a manager like Antonio Conte. He likes you to work, work, work. Every day.”


“Friday was a magical moment. Like in a dream. But I didn’t lose my head either. I kept on working. Because I knew there were some important games to come.”

“I knew I could get my chance against Watford, so from Saturday morning I started focusing on this game. I wanted to perform well. I wanted to make the fans and the manager proud of me. I didn’t give up and today the team and I have been rewarded. That’s good for everybody.” He told the Guardian.
