Chelsea star Hakim Ziyech admits he found it a little difficult to settle in at the club.
The Moroccan had injury problems when he first arrived and had to wait patiently to play his first games for the team.
But Ziyech has shown his quality in the league this season, and is hoping he can kick on under new boss Thomas Tuchel.
Asked if he is now comfortable at the club, he told the club's official website : "Yes, of course. I have now been here six or seven months and I have started to adapt to things more and more.
"At the beginning everything is new and it is nice but I really also love to be around my family and my mother and my brothers and friends, but at this time it is not possible. So after a while it was a little bit difficult but you start to get used to it. I have not met the fans properly yet.
"The fans had a game when they could come to watch and then I got injured after 25 minutes against Leeds! Hopefully, better times will come and everybody will be able to come to the stadium."
