David Luiz: “I hope this is my time”

How rude, TheChelseaBlog completely forgetting its manners.

Amid all the excitement of signing Fernando Torres, the welcome of David Luiz from Benfica seems to have been tepid in comparison. Understandable maybe but we shouldn’t forget that in David Luiz we’re getting a young, versatile central defender who can play anywhere across the back four.

The 23 year old made his first trip to Cobham yesterday and despite a bit of competition at the back, seems pretty focused on his task, saying “I am very happy to come here. This is a complete dream to come to Chelsea and it’s an important step in any player’s life to come here. Now I need to make it my job to show everybody why the club wanted me to come here. I always knew there would be competition because Chelsea is a big club and you have to be a top player to play here. It is a big challenge for me but I have a strong desire to get a place in this group. I want to establish myself and learn from my new team-mates to become a better player and have more skills. The best league in the world is the Premier League, so I am so happy to be here playing with and against big players. All great players want to play against other great players and I hope this is my time.”

Welcome David Luiz.
