🚨 Creating the correct culture is important and in Xabi Alonso, Chelsea see someone capable of overseeing that amid internal recognition that it is an area for addressing. He has that aura, born out of his c.v. as a player and a coach.

The initial idea, according to one insider, is to be seriously challenging for the Premier League title within three seasons if not sooner.

Chelsea sources say their hiring of Xabi Alonso is evidence of their ‘evolution’, and that they have learned lessons and acknowledge mistakes have been made amid fan anger. Liam Rosenior was a harsh lesson.

While Alonso is not slated to start work officially until July 1, he will be working unofficially, of course he will. Planning for the next season will take place in the meantime. Studying. Scouting.
