Chelsea FC, England
25 appearances, 1 goal, 1 season: 2004/05
„The trainer Jose Mourinho said that he had seen all appearances of the Russia national team and my game impressed him. Then we began to speak about Chelsea. Mourinho´s plans are to create the team of 25 equal players. And at the time at least two football players will pretend to each position. He said also I should choose – to be a first boy on a village or to try to be quite at home in one of the best football clubs.
