Frenchman sends message to Chelsea fans after latest transfer signing!
Ex-Blues star Frank Lebeouf is hoping that CHELSEA fans are patient with new summer signing Liam Delap, after the big striker completed his move to Stamford Bridge this week.
Delap was attracting interest from a host of clubs, including Newcastle and Manchester United, after scoring 12 Premier League goals this season, But the 22-year-old chose Chelsea because he believes they can realise his ambition of winning silverware.
On Chelsea’s deal for Delap, Leboeuf said: ‘Expectations are going to be big and the pressure is going to be huge. You won’t know before you experienced it.
‘Any player wants to play for the biggest clubs and you want to try. Hopefully it’s going to work.
‘When I came to Chelsea, I was completely unknown so that was nice, but guys like Gianluca Vialli and Gianfranco Zola came with pressure, even if it wasn’t the Chelsea that we know now.’
He added: ‘Delap is going to have pressure.
‘The fans are fed up with bad strikers and they want someone productive.
‘Let’s give him a chance and see how it works. But unless you’ve tried you will not know if you deserve to be a Chelsea striker.’

Delap is a very good young striker that has all the potential to be a big player for CHELSEA, we have really snapped up a bargain already this summer transfer window. Hopefully he can cope with the pressures of playing with the Blues.
It is a great start to the summer window to see the players that we are being linked with, Delap has great potential, but i am hoping that the board are also able to bring in a few proven top level players that will really worry the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City next season.
