Mourinho says Cesc Fabregas is loving life at Chelsea since his £30 million
summer switch from Barcelona.
The 27-year-old, who spent eight years at Arsenal before making the switch
to his boyhood heroes in 2011, has settled quickly into west London life.
And the Portuguese boss believes Fabregas has no regrets about choosing
Stamford Bridge over The Emirates having led the Blues to the top of the
Premier League standings.
"I think he loves Chelsea already," the Chelsea boss told the Daily Star.
"He's so happy; the way he plays, the way he's a member of the squad, the
way he lives in this little blue village.
"It is like he's here for a long time. If you ask him now if he regrets the
move, I'm sure he'd say no.
"If you ask him if he'd choose a different option, he'd say no. And if you
ask him where he thinks he'll be in five years' time, he'd say he sees
himself here in five years' time.
"He is Chelsea. I'm happy with his approach," he added.
"For me, the approach is correct. The fact he's giving everything to Chelsea
with such professionalism and enthusiasm is exactly what we want of him.
"Every game, no exception. Every game he has been phenomenal for us.
"He has responsibilities, the team are playing well, and I couldn't be
happier from the moment we decided to bring him."
