John Terry claims Chelsea have always played tiki-taka football after
arrival of Cesc Fabregas and Diego Costa

Chelsea skipper John Terry claims they have always played tiki-taka
football as he lauded new signing Cesc Fabregas.


Jose Mourinho's side was criticised last season for playing defensive
football, but this term Chelsea have been the great entertainers.


The arrivals of Fabregas from Barcelona and striker Diego Costa from
Atletico Madrid have seen the Blues bag 15 goals in their first four
Premier League games.


But Terry, talking to Sport magazine, rejected accusations that the
arrivals of the Spanish stars from Chelsea's principles.


He said: 'Fabregas is associated with tiki-taka but at Chelsea we've
always played this way: pass the ball, control games, and give ourselves
more options going forward.


'To be honest I don't think there have been wholesale changes. We've
always wanted to play through the midfield.


'You can see the qualities Cesc brings to the pitch - he can find passes
that others can't, he keeps the ball really well and helps us control
games.


'To have someone so influential in the Spain squad along with Diego Costa
has been great.'

Chelsea skipper John Terry has hailed the impact made by Cesc Fabregas and
believes he is firmly part of the Blues family now.


The former Arsenal midfielder has already become one of the first names on
Jose Mourinho's team sheet and has hit an instant partnership with fellow
Spain international Diego Costa.


The Blues are flying high at the top of the table even though their 100
per cent start to the season was ended with a late Frank Lampard strike
for Manchester City on Sunday.


Terry has been impressed with the new signings and believes Fabregas has
settled in remarkably well despite his Arsenal connections.


"Obviously we were always competitive when we played against each other,
and we had a little laugh about that. But that's what football is all
about – the rivalry," Terry told Sport Magazine.


"But now he is one of us; part of the Chelsea family, and he is playing
great. In the short time he has been here, he has made a big impression.
He has a long contract, and we all hope he can bring great success to
Chelsea for years to come.


"Obviously Cesc is a world class player. To have someone so influential
from the Spain squad, along with Diego Costa, has been great.


"You can see the qualities Cesc brings to the pitch – he can find passes
that others can't. He keeps the ball really well, and he helps us control
games."
