Xabi Alonso told Chelsea he wants to sign and create mentality monsters.

Alonso sought assurances but he has not made demands about power. In a break with previous appointments Alonso has taken the title of manager rather than head coach but that was Chelsea’s idea.

Chelsea see Xabi Alonso as a leader with the potential to be more than a coach. Their ears pricked up when Alonso spoke about culture.

Chelsea loved it when he talked about wanting to sign and create mentality monsters.

Players will want to sign for Alonso. Perhaps Chelsea, who are set to miss out on Champions League qualification for the third time in four years, have slightly underestimated the power of the manager.
