Speaking in an interview with Chelsea FC’s website, Alonso said: “So far, so good.
“I think he has a great style and we are just learning new things now to get used to it very quickly, and be ready for August 5 when we have the Community Shield against Manchester City.
“He likes to play football, he likes to press high, to try to have control of the ball and so control of the game.”
Chelsea FC completed their first signing of the summer last weekend when they tied up a deal to bring in Jorginho from Napoli.
The west London side will be aiming to be among the contenders for the Premier League title next season.
