"Christian [Pulisic] was in the same situation as Kai [Havertz]. Both of them took the responsibility for the turnaround, so it is their responsibility, and they deserve the credit. They did amazingly and you can see it on the pitch."
"If the players step up their responsibility on a daily basis and fight heavily for it and accept no excuses for themselves, and dig into the situation and dig their way out, then they will have our full support."
"Once this happens it is of course sometimes a give and take, and then a positive cycle of improvement and support and you get the positive feedback and that is where Christian is at the moment."
"There will only be one week of training camp before the first game, which is why these international weeks when the group get together are becoming more and more important."
"Other teams are playing for qualification, we qualified already in Seville against Sweden. We have to continue improving in each training session and we have a magnificent opportunity ahead of us to keep building."
"I wasn’t apprehensive but after eight years at a club [PSG], I was making such a big move at what is theoretically the tail end of my career, for many players at least."
"So many people had their doubts whether I’d be able to play to the same standard here as I did at PSG but I never had any doubts of how I’d perform for the club."
"It will be difficult one because Newcastle is very, very strong. It's a different Newcastle and they produce a lot of results, so I’m expecting a very tough game."
"I’m sorry but I don’t care too much about what the neutral spectators think about who should win it. In the end, everybody wants to be excited to watch games and be entertained and this is what we are up for."
"It’s maybe way too early to talk about it [contracts/signings being impossible]. I don’t know exactly the rules about the current situation & I think, as statement said, there are negotiations & talks going on about licence. So let’s see..."
"I trust in everybody who is in charge, I trust people who are in charge in the government to find a solution that keeps us going through the season, and gives us the possibility to be in charge of our actions in the summer."
"[We should] make it clear what they have & not only the first team dressing room which is fancy to be in. It's the opposite. It is a very down-to-earth environment here but it's at the highest level."
"It is functional, a club you want to be at and bring your very best as a coach or as a player. From my perspective, that is something you cannot balance with money."
"It's strange, we didn't see this happening for a very long time. #Chelsea was always a Roman Abramovich club from my point of view, and was run by a compassionate and committed owner who took to a sport that we all love, football, so seriously.
"This is so new and such a big change that I'm not even sure how I feel about it. I'm very happy to come here actually to work, because on a daily basis, once we are in the building there is not a big change..."
"Because the owner was not here for lunch and not here for meetings, not here for training so this does actually at the moment look very normal. It gives everybody a good feeling.
