Hiddink: I know plenty about these Chelsea players

Guus Hiddink is confident of quickly adjusting to what is needed as new Chelsea manager.

The Dutchman said: "I am not just here to add to my experience with the club and Premier League, but also I want to see these results as soon as possible.

"The players are very committed, I have seen the training session, but sometimes you can have a little bit different approach to get even more efficiency out of the players.

"That is where I am aiming at and if you add those individuals together and make a team, then everyone can bring a little bit more.

"Not just in commitment. It is too easy to talk commitment because everyone has an obligation to be committed, but in the tactical and the strategic approach during the game. We might gain some profit.

"I worked several years with Alex (at PSV) but I know the players of Chelsea and other clubs as well, I know almost all of the players.

"To be honest I don't know the players from the academy and I see them participating already with the first team which is good. I have to know them better, how they play etc, but generally speaking I know the players."
