STANDS🗣️ Jordan Henderson on what he can bring to Chelsea. "I still feel as hungry as ever to achieve things, to improve and to get better. And I am here now to help this football club be successful in the future. "This is just another huge opportunity and I am excited to join. "For me, football is a team sport. Everything should be about the team. Throughout my career, everything I have done is for the team, and to try and make others better.
