Jorginho is very happy about Chelsea fans chanting his name and applause on Saturday, especially after converting the penalty that set Chelsea on the way to victory.
Chelsea supporters would last season jeer when they heard Jorginho’s name announced pre-match, despairing at the prospect of another sterile display. Now they are savouring a full-scale love-in with their Brazilian-born Italian international midfielder.
“Yes, it made me a little bit sad because I knew it was not like that but in my mind I just have to work hard and change their minds, and they have to notice they made a mistake about myself,” said Jorginho, who followed Sarri to London from Napoli for £52 million two summers ago.
“It was amazing because last season it was impossible. I am very happy how they changed their mind about me. I worked a lot, I never said anything,” he said. “I am thankful for what I learnt from him [Sarri] but it is an opportunity to show I’m here not just for the coach.”

I mean it was impossible for fans who had no idea what his game was about a lot of people last season loved him an could see he is brilliant. He just needs the right people around him and willing runners in behind.

Deserves all the praise he gets, has been 1 of our best players in these tough times. It's very rare to find a player in the world that can set the tempo of a game better than Jorginho can. Very underrated player....
