A new era at The Bridge

Stamford bridge is reshaping to be the fortress it once was, with a squad of youthful talent. Owner Roman Abramovich's spending spree has sent a clear message out to the Manchester clubs as well as the rest of Europe's elite that he wants The Blues to once again challenge for top honours domestically as well as retain their title of European champions.

Signings like Oscar, Kevin De Bruyn, Marko Marin and brothers Eden and Thorgan Hazard, not forgetting the youth that Chelsea already possess such as Daniel Sturridge, Lucas Piazon, Romeu, Ryan Bertrand, Romelu Lukaku with signings like Victor Moses and Cesar Azpilicueta still on the cards for Chelsea, it has been a busy transfer period for the Blues.

Chelsea also have a squad of settled players with the likes of David Luiz, Gary Cahill, Juan Mata and Ramires who will surely be there for the long term. The Blues will be looking to revive the legacy that Jose Mourinho left before he departed and manager Roberto Di Mitteo will have a host of incredibly talented youngsters at his disposal this season although De Bruyn and Lukaku have been sent out on loan for experience to Werder Bremen and West Brom respectively on season long loan deals.

With the players that Chelsea have its a great foundation for a squad that could only grow from strength to strength, clinching many titles on the way. Roman Abramovich will be hoping with all the money he has vested in the blues squad they would be able to emulate the achievements of last season in the champions league, his so called "holy grail".

The squad has been reshaped and revived with players who are more creative and attack minded, the talent in this squad could be compared to the likes of players in clubs such Real Madrid and Barcelona whom have some of the greatest talents that football has to offer.

The intentions of Chelsea have been made clear, we already see Eden Hazard although only two games into the season showing his quality, Oscar an undoubtedly talented youngster who has so much to offer and his fellow Brazilian Lucas Piazon, whom many haven't heard of, is brilliant on the ball. The stars that Chelsea have acquired have five star ratings and will definitely help this team progress and once again be challenging for top honors domestically and in Europe.
