It has been a case of so far, so good for the former Brighton coach with five wins in six and four clean sheets on the bounce. Broja has come off the bench in all of those games, bar the AC Milan away fixture, and it is clear to the Albanian international that Potter is having a positive impact at Cobham. 'He's spoken to all the players individually and got to know us, seen how we think about things and seen how the person is, their background,' revealed Broja. 'He said to me the more I could keep working hard in training, learning from the other players, the more opportunities I would get. He tries to keep you ambitious and hungry. https://i.imgur.com/11l4jQl.jpg Broja and Potter in training 'Any time you need help he's there to help you, or his coaching staff are there to help you. He wants to develop all the players and help out everyone. 'It's been really good to have him here, to talk to him. It's been a really good vibe and we're doing really well at the moment so we just want to keep that going.' The undoubted individual highlight for Broja so far this season arrived earlier this month, late in the comfortable home win against Wolves. He took a Mateo Kovacic pass in his stride, cut onto his right foot and buried an emphatic finish into the bottom right-hand corner. https://twitter.com/ChelseaFC/status/1578852739496366080 It's a beauty! The roof nearly came off Stamford Bridge as the home faithful took extra delight in one of their own opening his Chelsea account. Broja says having the backing of the Blues fans has made the transition into the men's first team squad even easier. 'To see and hear what the fans are saying is unreal,' beamed Broja. 'To have that support behind you gives me a lot of confidence as a young player. It gives me ambition to go out there and do well for them, and for yourself, your family, your team-mates and the manager. I'm so thankful to them for supporting and hopefully it continues. https://i.imgur.com/UNWDnB7.jpg Broja taking it all in under the Stamford Bridge lights 'For me and my family it is incredible to be playing at Stamford Bridge in front of the fans, and to score a goal for your childhood club is even better. 'It was incredible. My Instagram said it all – I was lost for words! I couldn't really believe it. It almost feels like you've achieved everything at that moment, but it's only the beginning of hopefully an amazing adventure.' Broja also reserves extra gratitude for his family. Born in Slough, Broja credits his mum for driving him everywhere he needed to be football, and his dad for working hard to provide for the family. They remain his biggest supporters. 'My mum and dad try to keep me as a humble boy on and off the pitch,' says Broja. 'I try to implement what they have taught me. It's important to have family and good people behind you to keep you grounded and level-headed, and focused on what's in front of you. They are always at the games, they give me their opinions. Even if I feel like I've had a good game, my dad will turn around and pick out a couple of negatives from the game because he always wants me to improve. https://i.imgur.com/AIYsKp1.jpg Broja with his parents after signing his new deal last month 'Back in my Academy days I lacked quite a lot of confidence, which was quite tough,' adds Broja. 'I know the feeling of not having a good season, and not being around the team as much, and not being involved as much. It's not a nice feeling, but I've always had my family behind me to keep me positive and keep me going, and keep my head moving forward. Now it's drilled into me, I always want to keep that confidence.' -- 以伊露维塔的名为证发誓 — 若有谁敢夺取属於我们的蓝色之心，不论对方是天使 、恶魔、男人或女人，包括尚未出生者，若有任何的生灵，不论伟大或渺小，是善 还是恶，我们都将怀着复仇与憎恨之心直追到天涯海角，直追到世界结束之日。 --
