Cech And Van Der Sar Inspire Me To Do Better – Mendy

Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy has come out to admit that he is presently experiencing a difficult time at the club. He recently revealed that the club as a whole has battled tough periods in recent times, and he can only hope results will change for the better very soon.

According to him, even if he is very proud to be a part of the team, the pressure has definitely increased since he joined, and he hopes to keep meeting the required standard.

Mendy added that he watched a lot of Cech and Van Der Sar when they played for their respective clubs, and he wants to have their kind of impact in the EPL.

His words, “I wanted to be here because for me the Premier League is the best league in the world so I’m glad to be here.”

“It was a good start but with the team it’s a difficult time. We try to keep going, to move forward and I hope the results will be good soon.”

“It’s a big responsibility because this club has won so many trophies and we want to fight to win trophies every year, so the pressure is high every year, and it’s good to be part of this team.”

“I think we have to work hard in training, to keep working, and for me we need to stay confident between us because when you’ve lost many games sometimes it’s hard. But we need to stay positive, we need to stay confident and stay focused on the next game.”

“When I was a little boy I watched Chelsea, Marseille and Real Madrid. I watched a lot of the Chelsea games when Michael Essien and Didier Drogba played for this club. For me this team was the best in the history of this club.

‘Everybody knows Petr is a legend, he’s a very good goalkeeper, so I watched a lot of his games. I liked [Edwin] van der Sar as well. As for outfield players, Didier Drogba, and [Steven] Gerrard as well, Michael Essien. I liked Louis Saha, when he played for Manchester United and, of course, Cristiano Ronaldo.”
