Tahith Chong on Robben comparisons and life at Werder Bremen

The youngster is hoping to make a real impression this season and benefit from regular first-team football, but his chief focus is on Werder’s overall performance.

“I think, most of the time, I like to speak as a team, rather than just myself,” he explained. “I think as a team, this year we want to perform well, do the best we can and try to win games.

“As a footballer, once you step on the pitch, you want to win every game you play in. But, like I said, as a team, we just want to improve this year and keep improving game by game. Like I said, we will just look at it game by game and try to do our best in those games.

“Every season is a different season. Once I had spoken to the coach and the players here, you get a feeling for the club. You don’t think about what happened last season. You just want to improve this year and enjoy the football.
