English Football Too Hard For Pedro


Pedro stuggling to adapt to 'hard' English football

Chelsea forward Pedro admits he is having difficulty adapting to the Premier League.

The 28-year-old scored on his Blues debut against West Brom in August but has since struggled to make an impact following his big-money move from Spanish and European champions Barcelona this summer.

Pedro has only added a goal against Walsall in the League Cup in September to his tally and the Spain international admits he has found English football to be "hard", although feels he is slowly settling in.

He said: "It's hard. It's very different to what I'm used to [at Barcelona]. But, little by little, I'm integrating more, adapting with my team-mates and the team and that's the most important thing.

"Everything is different, very different to the football I'm used to.

"I think there are a lot of differences, very physical football, very strong. A lot of players attack and it's always complicated. All the games are competitive and very balanced."

As a result, there was always going to keen interest in exactly how Ronaldo and Messi fare. And, well, three games in and their form is diametrically opposed. Ronaldo is in the running for the Golden Boot after scoring four goals in his opening two fixtures, including a stunning hat-trick against a hotly fancied Spain team. MESSI VS RONALDO DEBATE Meanwhile, Messi just found the back of the net in Russia only in his last outing vs Nigeria and missed a vital penalty in the 1-1 draw with Iceland. These developments led to a spike in support for Ronaldo to be considered the greatest of all time, with this summer exemplifying his brilliant form over the last few years.
