Brighton head coach Roberto De Dzerby commented on Mikhail Mudrik's difficulties at Chelsea.
"My staff and I have a special relationship with Mudrik. He's like a son to us. I hope he stays on the bench and doesn't play, but I love him. Hopefully things will get better for him in the next game.
I think it's been a tough season for Chelsea, but they're still a big team. One season can be like that. It's hard for any young player to adapt to a different country and a different style. Chelsea has a lot of great players, and I think for Mudrik it's a normal situation, he has to adapt and understand that his life has changed. I think he is a good, smart guy. Michal can become a better player," Metro quoted De Dzerby as saying.
