The former Italy Coach has brought his focus on grit and determination to Stamford Bridge, already impressing his squad.

“The Coach has changed the formation, we are playing a different system to last season,” Oscar told the Evening Standard newspaper.

“His training method is different to what we had last season and he's changed both the players' mentality and the team's mentality. I think we have improved since he's come here.

“I think you can see that last season we were lacking a bit of resilience. We had that spirit in some games, but we weren't consistent.

“It's good to have that spirit back and we are looking to improve on that front. If we keep up this team spirit, we will be a threat in the Premier League.

“In the last few seasons I have played as a no. 10 or as a winger. Now I'm going back to my original position of No. 8, attacking and defending from box to box, which is my original role and the one I like the most.

“Hopefully this season we will win trophies and get back to a winning mentality. The objective is not only to finish in the top four, but to fight for the league, FA Cup and League Cup because we have to win trophies.”
