Roberto Di Matteo has revealed he tried to sign Victor Moses "years ago" and expects the forward to have a "big influence" for Chelsea this season.
Di Matteo is expected to rest a number of the players who were involved in the 1-0 win over Stoke on Saturday, especially as his team face Arsenal next weekend. Marko Marin, Lucas Piazon and Cesar Azpilicueta are all in line to make their first appearances for the club while Moses could be used as a target-man in place of Fernando Torres. "I'm sure there'll be one or two that haven't had much time on the pitch who'll be playing on Tuesday," added Di Matteo. "We'll mix it up. There are a few players who have played one or two games before that deserve a chance and there will be some senior players too."
