"I think he did very well. He changed the game for us. Obviously, he's been on holiday in Brazil and we didn't know what to expect from (in terms of) match sharpness and things, but tonight, I think he changed the game."

"When he comes to England, people need to give him time to adapt to the culture, the language, he's only 18 or 19. But you can see he's got amazing quality, and I will look forward to seeing him.”

“That’s my boy. Obviously, I’ve had a difficult time these past whatever months on and off the pitch, but he’s always been there for me and he’s helped me a lot. So, yeah, I just thought I’d go over to him.”

"It feels great. It’s a great feeling to join such a big club as Chelsea. I can’t wait to learn from everyone in the team and to push myself to the max here. It’s an amazing feeling."

“I was at Chelsea when I was at Under-8 or Under-9 level, around that time. I wasn’t there for long, but I remember going to Chelsea and being so excited to come back from school to join Chelsea for two hours, once a week. It was a great feeling.”

"I remember playing at Reading and Manchester City and having to play Chelsea in the youth academies, so to go back to Cobham as a Chelsea player will be great."

"I played with Cole at Under-16s and Under-18s, and Liam the same, and I’ve played against Levi (Colwill) from every single time we’d play against Chelsea in the FA Youth Cup, Premier League tournaments, the lot."

"I had a couple of text messages from Cole [Palmer] telling me to come, the same from Liam [Delap], and all of them were eager for me to join [Chelsea]."
