Chelsea boss Antonio Conte insists he has every confidence in David Luiz after confirming the Brazilian will start against Liverpool on Friday night.
Luiz,
the shock £34million (€40m) deadline-day signing from Paris St Germain,
will replace injured skipper John Terry at Stamford Bridge.
It
will be the first appearance of Luiz’s second spell at the club, with
his first stint as memorable for his erratic displays as his brilliant
ones.
After completing the signing Conte vowed to
work on the 29-year-old’s weaknesses, so Liverpool will be the first
team to test the supposedly new and improved Luiz.
“David Luiz will play for the first time with us and we are confident about this,” said the Italian.
“We
expect him to play very well, with great attention. We know David is a
good player and we are working to put him in the best condition to give
us the best of him.
“When new players arrive they need time to adapt to a new concept of football. Tomorrow we need to play David Luiz.
