One Chelsea backup player has come out and said that he is just very, very happy to be at the club after he had a top performance this week.
The Blues beat Heidenheim 2-0 away from home in the Conference League last night to continue their 100% record in the league section of the competition so far.
EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea stepping up pursuit of Premier League striker – not Evan Ferguson!
It was far from easy though, like they had gotten used to in previous games. But Chelsea also had to be professional and calm to make sure they grabbed the goals and did enough to come away with all three points last night, which is what they did in the end.
Heidenheim were a pretty tough opposition, even though they are struggling in the Bundesliga this season. They were much more organised, and they were also a solid goal threat too.
The game could have easily ended 5-5, with both sides having a high number of attempts on goal, and Heideheim actually having more on target than Chelsea, with a massive 11 on goal.
Jorgensen won that for Chelsea
Goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen was the one who won the game for Chelsea in the end, making a string of top saves across the entire evening, letting his centre backs off the hook, who were very poor ahead of him.
If it wasn’t for the Blues stopper, then this could have ended up being pretty embarrassing for Chelsea last night.
After the game, Jorgensen said to the Chelsea website:
“I’m very, very happy to be here. I said it many times to my friends, family and agent. I just enjoy every moment and try to get better every day.”
This is a fantastic attitude to have from a player who is currently just backing up Robert Sanchez in league games. Many Blues fans want him to start now over Sanchez.
