Chelsea captain John Terry says Cesc Fabregas is already part of the family.
The former Arsenal skipper has been outstanding since his arrival from Barcelona.
Hailing the influence of Fabregas, Chelsea skipper Terry told Sport magazine: ''Obviously we were always competitive when we played against each other, and we had a little laugh about that. But that's what football is all about - the rivalry.
''But now he is one of us; part of the Chelsea family, and he is playing great. In the short time he has been here, he has made a big impression.
''He has a long contract, and we all hope he can bring great success to Chelsea for years to come.''
