Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas knew from the start of the season that he had joined a special team, the dressing room was full of old rivals and proven winners at every level, now it was his time to join them in the quest for his first PremierLeague title.
His link with Matic has been crucial, but it is the all-round ability in the squad that has made such an impression on Fabregas.
Once we all met at the beginning of the season and we started training with each other, we knew we had a great squad
It was a significant decision for Fabregas to move to Chelsea. But once he met manager Jose Mourinho and had been given assurances about the role he would play, he was sold on the idea.
The best of my career? Maybe. Maybe the experience and the quality have all come together for me. I know myself much better.
Fabregas is aware of the all-conquering age-group teams at Chelsea who have reigned supreme in domestic and European football.
There is a new team and a new generation coming up and we have to stick together as long as we can. Hopefully, this is the start for Chelsea, not the finish.
