This SEASON he has again been a peripheral player for Mourinho, starting just two Premier League games.
He scored in the 2-2 draw against Newcastle with a STUNNING strike from outside the penalty area but was subbed at half time against Southampton.

“I’m proud to reach that FIGURE, especially at a top club like Chelsea,” he said.
