Chelsea New Signee Kai Havertz was pleased to get 80 minutes under his belt against Brighton.
Havertz made his Chelsea debut on Monday night as the Blues beat Brighton 3-1 to get their season off to a winning start.
The 21-year-old did not look fully fit but that is no surprise given he only signed for Chelsea last week and has hardly had a pre-season.
Havertz did show glimpses of his quality and there is no doubt he will be a great addition to the Premier League once he builds up his sharpness.
“It was a very tough game, very difficult because I had long holidays and I came back and trained for five or six days with the team,” said Havertz. “More important is that we won so I am very happy to make my debut.
“The Premier League is much tougher than the Bundesliga. I have seen that in training and saw it in the game as well. But I am happy to play 80 minutes and hopefully next week I will continue.”
