In recent months, Chelsea have left three important players - captain John Terry, who moved to Aston Villa, midfielder Nemanja Matic, who completed the transfer to the Manchester United, and returned to Atletico Diego Costa.

Despite the personnel losses, Willian is confident that the team as before is strong.

"We left the magnificent players, we will miss them, but Chelsea always tries to sign quality performers," - said the Brazilian in an interview with Sky Sports.

"I think those players who joined us are also very good, because we are not weaker. We are all just as strong ".

"It's a shame to lose great players, but the main thing is that they are happy with us, in Madrid or Manchester," - summed up Willian.

Earlier, the departure of Diego Costa expressed the head coach of Chelsea Antonio Conte.
