Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho says Barcelona's loss is their gain regarding Cesc Fabregas. Cesc was outstanding on debut in victory at Burnley last night.
Mourinho feels Barcelona wasted his talents.
The Chelsea manager has long been aware of the players' skills and was happy to see him shine as the title-favourites got their season off to a flying start.
"Fabregas was our first choice for that position. I know clearly what the player is because we were so long in the same league," he said.
"He moved to Spain also, so for the last 10 years we have been in the same league for six or seven. I know exactly what he will bring. For Barça he was the fake nine, the number ten and winger but I know and he knows what is his best position so he is giving exactly what we need. Quick thinking in midfield. He brings people in the same direction. I am really happy."
