Fabregas can get through difficult phase, says Pedro(The Star)
Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas will get through his difficult phase at Stamford Bridge and win back supporters who have been calling for his ouster, the Spaniard's team mate Pedro has said.
Fabregas, along with Eden Hazard and Diego Costa, bore the brunt of the Chelsea fans' displeasure at the departure of manager Jose Mourinho during Saturday's win over Sunderland.
"It was difficult for him (Fabregas) but he can get through this. He is strong mentally and very competitive," Pedro told the Evening Standard.
"Cesc is a top player, a very good character in the team, he is a winner and it's good he plays for us.
"I understand why the fans are so upset. It's normal when the team and coach are in this position."
Many supporters pinned the blame for the Blues' woeful form squarely on the players rather than on the Portuguese manager.
"Jose
Mourinho is a very good coach. It is a difficult situation for
everyone. It was certainly difficult for the players, but it was an
important win," the former Barcelona player added.
"The
supporters have been good to us this season. They have always been with
us, together. I don't say anything against them, they are part of us."
Captain John Terry had
also said Mourinho's sacking was not caused by a team mutiny and denied
any players had deliberately performed badly to hasten his departure.
Having
defeated Sunderland 3-1 in the league last weekend, Chelsea next play
seventh-placed Watford on Saturday, before a trip to Manchester United
two days later.
