“If we can continue this one thing we gonna in games” – Pedro Neto shares one thing Chelsea players must do everyday in-other to win games
Pedro Neto has revealed what the Chelsea squad needs accomplish in training if he is to gain a place in the Premier League starting lineup.
Chelsea’s most expensive summer addition was Neto, who cost the club £51.4 million from Wolves and is now settling in at Stamford Bridge.
The 24-year-old scored his second goal for the club in Thursday’s 4-2 Conference League win against Gent, and he’ll be hoping his performance earns him a spot in Sunday’s game against Nottingham Forest.
Neto opens up on Chelsea training
Neto made his debut on the opening day against Manchester City, but has only started two of Chelsea’s first six Premier League games and was substituted at half time against Bournemouth.
The winger has predominantly been used from the bench by Enzo Maresca in the Premier League with the Italian preferring Noni Madueke on the right hand side.
Neto has started three times in the cup competitions this season and has two goals for the Blues, one against Barrow and one against Gent.
The former Wolves man was impressive against the Belgian side and took his goal well and many fans feel he should start against Forest on Sunday given Madueke hasn’t been at his best over the past two games.
Speaking after the Gent game, Neto revealed that everyone wants to play, but if they don’t give everything in training they simply won’t be selected.
“In training we have to give everything otherwise we don’t play, and every player wants to play,” he told Chelsea’s website.
“When we have the opportunity, we have to do our job and enjoy it. I think the team enjoyed tonight, played well and we have to continue.”
