      Chelsea boss Luiz Felipe Scolari has compared Deco to France legend Zinedine Zidane.

      The Brazil-born Portugal star moved to Stamford Bridge this summer after four years at Barcelona and appears to have been given a new lease of life.

      Scolari knows all about Deco’s capabilities from his time as Portugal manager and he believes he has a similar style to Zidane.

      “He is special – and unique,” he said in the Daily Star.

      “One of the best players in the world was Zidane. Deco is not Zidane, but his style is similar.

      “You expect one thing but, when he plays, it changes. This is important in one player.

      “It’s not just that he is a good player. When they play Deco, other teams put one player or two players to mark him and that opens the space for others in our team.”

      Deco may not be in Zidane's class but he is a very good play maker who is capable of running his own show if rivial dun play enough attention on him, probably going to be the one of the best if not the best signing for Chelsea and maybe even entire EPL this season
