Cole Palmer: "Right wing and no.10 are my best two positions."

Cole Palmer: "I’m excited to get started and it feels great to sign. I’ve joined Chelsea because the project here sounds good and because of the platform I will have to try to showcase my talents. It is a young and hungry squad and, hopefully, we can do something special here."

Co-sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley on Palmer: "Cole arrives with experience of winning the Premier League and Champions League and adds further quality and versatility to our attacking unit. He has showcased his talent and potential in the most challenging environments and delivered on the international stage for England this summer at the European Under-21 Championships. He is undoubtedly ready for this next step and we are delighted it will be with Chelsea."

Cole Palmer on Raheem Sterling: "Raz has always looked after me, so I appreciate him. He was one when I was coming through at Man City who put his arm around me. That was amazing for me, for someone of his pedigree and international experience to do that.

He saw the potential I had. He saw what I was doing in training. We started talking a bit more. I was asking him questions all the time and from there we have always kept in contact."

Gabriel Agbonlahor on Cole Palmer: "He walks into that Chelsea side. You look at Chelsea they played a 5-3-2, he fits in as one of the three with Enzo [Fernandez] in front of [Moises] Caicedo. Or he can play in a 4-3-3. Palmer in the right, [Raheem] Sterling on the left, [Nicolas] Jackson down the middle.

He knows he’s going to be starting games, guaranteed football, Pochettino is a great coach. If I’m Cole Palmer it makes sense."

MALAY GENEROSITY

1. Malays are a generous people. When other countries insist that foreigners who want to be citizens of the country have to assimilate and be assimilated with the definitive people of the country, the Malays were willing to accept unassimilated foreigners as citizens. The migrants can retain their languages and customs and even their schools and scripts upon becoming citizens.

2. They can even stay apart from the indigenous people and retain their identification with their original country. They retain their racial identification with their economic functions.

3. Despite all these unusual tolerances, the country, under predominantly Malay rule remained stable and peaceful. In fact it developed faster than most other countries where conditions and restrictions are imposed.

4. But when this generosity is taken for granted and the beneficiaries propose that the land does not belong only to the Malays as the definitive people, that it belongs equally to the unassimilated migrants and their descendants, then the Malays have a right to object to this demand.

5. To call this objection racist is a contradiction in terms.

6. It is the demand of those who refused to be assimilated, refuse to be identified with the definitive people who continue their identification with their racial origins who are racist.

7. The English people who seized the land of the natives of North America, set up a new nation, the United States of America. The later immigrants and their descendants probably outnumbered the descendants of the English settlers. But the United States of America remain the English-speaking United States of America despite the citizenship of so many people who are not of English descent.

8. Indeed new citizens are tested in the mastery of the English language, in the history of the country and loyalty to it before being conferred with the citizenship of the country.

9. Such is their loyalty to their adopted nation that they would fight to the death against their countries of origin.

10. Clearly the Malays had not followed the usual conditions for accepting foreigners as citizens.

11. This is the cause of the problem facing the nation now.

🚨 Chelsea are considering a late move for Arsenal star Emile Smith Rowe and Barcelona pair Raphinha and Ferran Torres.

Raheem Sterling: "Chelsea are lucky to have Reece James and Malo Gusto as right-backs."

Kevin Hitchcock on Petrovic: "I saw natural ability. I saw he had this amazing plyometric jump, that was a big thing for me. That is what I like to work with. As a person, he is such a great lad. Everybody liked him.

He is very easy to work with, doesn’t have any issues, always has a smile on his face, and he wants to be the very best goalkeeper he can be.

His performances every week were outstanding and he got better and better. From there, his confidence grew. He will go to England ready-made. He can speak well, is good at communicating and organising players in the penalty area so they know what he wants."

Chelsea and Roma have asked Romelu Lukaku to take a £7million pay cut to sanction his loan move back to Italy.

Lukaku’s £325,000-a-week wages at Chelsea see him earn around £17m a year, a salary out of reach for Roma and the Blues are unwilling to subsidise.

I saw this Somewhere. What do y'all think?

What is Geremi doing there?

When Raheem Sterling was dropped from the England squad in June, he started doing judo and hill runs to get back to his best — all that work over the summer appears to have paid off.

Roma Captain Lorenzo Pellegrini

“I don’t know what Lukaku would bring, but there are those who are working to make it happen. When it will be done, then we’ll see what he can bring, otherwise it’s like talking about any player in the world.”

PETROVIĆ AT A GLANCE:

- 2022 Revolution Team MVP and Player’s Player of the Year registered 43 MLS appearances for New England, posting a 17-11-15 record with 14 clean sheets.

- Earned 2023 MLS All-Star selection, compiling an 11-4-7 record with seven shutouts through 22 starts during the current campaign.

- Recorded 1.20 goals against average with New England in all competitions, the best mark in club history.

- Posted seven clean sheets and a league-best four penalty saves in 2022, finishing second 2022 MLS Allstate Goalkeeper of the Year and MLS Newcomer of the Year voting.

- Became the fastest goalkeeper in MLS history to record five penalty saves, doing so in only 31 games.
Serbia native played 86 games with 33 clean sheets across all competitions over three seasons with FK Čukarički.

- Owns two senior caps with Serbia Men’s National Team.

Co-sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart: "We are very pleased to welcome Djordje to the club. His performances in MLS have earned deserved praise and recognition – and have prepared him for the challenge of playing for Chelsea.

Djordje improves an already strong goalkeeping team. We look forward to watching him work under Mauricio Pochettino, goalkeeper coach Toni Jimenez, and the rest of the first-team staff this season."

Petrovic: "I’m so happy to be at Chelsea and I’m really excited to get started at this club. It’s a big step for me and it’s always been a dream of mine to sign for one of the biggest clubs in the world. Today I have achieved that goal and I’m so happy. Playing in the Premier League is something I’m really looking forward to doing and I hope to learn many things here at Chelsea. I can’t wait to meet everyone and play at Stamford Bridge."

Chelsea has completed the signing of goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic from MLS side New England Revolution.

Expected Chelsea

Nicolas Jackson: "Obviously scoring for Chelsea is just an amazing feeling, but it was even better to do it at Stamford Bridge and in front of the fans. I thank them for their support and I hope there’s more to come!"

Bournemouth chairman Bill Foley: "Nicolas Jackson scored a goal last night, of course. We’d have liked to have him and we tried to get him back this year.

We had him last year and I believe we made a mistake because he didn’t pass his medical but actually he played much sooner than we thought he would. So I’m sorry we didn’t’ get him."

Raheem Sterling: "I want to get back to being obsessed with football. Just football 24/7 and nothing else and focus on top performances and goals and assists."

{Sky Sports}

Raheem Sterling: "I had a conversation with the gaffer earlier last week and we've gone through the role and I know exactly what he needs from me and it's as simple as that, I need to get on the back foot and do what I do and drive at players and get on it and that's when I'm most effective.

I came in a difficult period, that's all finished.. I think the most important thing, I've had a look at myself and I'm a person who always tries to analyse what I've been doing, what I've done wrong, what I can change."

Pochettino on Jackson: "His work ethic is amazing. We are not asking for him to run a lot or press. He has the potential to be a great striker. He needs time, and space to grow and his qualities are fantastic."
