Chelsea midfielder Jorginho: Premier League suits my style

Chelsea midfielder Jorginho admits he's enjoying his first weeks of the Premier League.

He set statistical records in the win at Newcastle last month, and also opened his account in a Chelsea shirt with a coolly-taken penalty at Huddersfield on the opening day.

"The Premier League is really nice, it's wonderful," he said.

"It is also quite difficult to explain certain things. You need to experience them personally to take it all in.

"I enjoy the high tempo of the matches and the fact that all the players get involved 100 per cent in the games.

"There is a big difference to Serie A, in terms of rhythm, physicality. Everybody knows this, of course, but I am enjoying it a lot.

"To understand the difference with the infrastructure in England you have to experience it," added Jorginho. "At Cobham, we have 38 pitches. Enough said."
