Raheem Sterling's exciting Chelsea debut has been followed by his first interview since signing for the club nearly two weeks ago.
The winger was part of Thomas Tuchel's expansive playing squad that lost in a penalty shootout against Charlotte overnight, a game in which Sterling made his debut.
Wearing an iconic no.17 top for preseason, the 27-year-old was able to replicate some of the dazzling dribbles that Eden Hazard became known for wearing the same shirt. Albeit he only played 45 minutes, one of 10 halftime changes made by Tuchel in a bid to get his squad's match sharpness up, Sterling immediately became the Blues' most prominent attacker.
