Oggy tells fans to recreate the Leicester effect

|

Angelo_Ogbonna_BGR-ITA_2012Angelo Ogbonna has called on the fans to recreate the atmosphere of the Leicester City game when Chelsea arrive tomorrow.

Ogbonna realises how hard things are at the moment but believed the team and fans can change things together!

He tells Saturday’s Official Programme: “At this moment, it is a hard one for us, but the fans know that the way they can help us change things is with the atmosphere they create.

“Against Leicester, it was the best atmosphere I have heard in London Stadium and it has to be like this every time.”

“We can change things together and it has to be really similar to that night at the Boleyn Ground!”

As well as his many friends in the stands, Ogbonna will also have the support of his family, with a large number of the player’s relations having flown in from Italy.

And he said: “The best way for me to have a good Christmas is to spend it with my family and they are coming to the game today!”

“My family are all coming, my Mum, my sister, my wife, my son, everybody is coming! Hopefully we will be able to celebrate an early Christmas by beating Chelsea.

“I wish the best of luck for us and if they can give us a bit of luck, that’s important.”
