Aguero talks, YOUR choices Rice, Haaland, and Gimenez, Kounde talks, GK contingencies, Chelsea ticking time bomb
All this and more in #Issue22 of my Chelsea FC Newsletter
Welcome to Issue 22 of the Si Phillips Talks Chelsea Newsletter!
The mood is a little different from last weeks update, and what a difference a week can make.
The discussions and thoughts have been a lot different to last week, when we had just been battered 5-2 by West Brom of all teams.
Since then though, we got a decent 2-0 lead over Porto in the Champions League, and we thrashed Crystal Palace 4-1 in what was the best Chelsea performance I have witnessed for a long time. But hey, it’s a Chelsea thing right?
Let’s start with some reflections on Saturday’s game, I’ve looked at the fact we as a club have split personalities, but is this a good or a bad thing? Chelsea are a ticking time bomb, check that out here.
Time for some transfer talk…. I got told an interesting bit of info on our interest in Sergio Aguero over the weekend.
You can check that out here.
Another bit of information that hasn’t actually come from ourselves but will alert your attentions all the same, is Chelsea’s interest in Jules Kounde.
Having been in Sevilla last week, it seems The Blues might have taken advantage of that situation, you can read about that here.
The Goalkeeper situation is always an interesting one, with no clear direction set for Kepa Arrizabalaga yet, but a bunch of contingency plans have been put in place.
Of course there is our serious interest in Gianluigi Donnarumma from AC Milan, but what other plans do we have? Find that out here.
Finally, we decided to get you guys involved a bit on this one by asking you who YOU want to see Chelsea sign this summer in three key positions.
Check out your top three choices here.
We all love a good poll, so we will be continuing that on the Si Phillips Talks Chelsea Twitter account this week, but this time we will be asking you who you want to see sold this summer.
Finally x2… If you haven’t already, check out our latest Podcast episode from last week, we had such a great guest on in the shape of UK Rapper, Songer. Load it up here, or search Si Phillips Talks Chelsea to find it on Spotify, Apple Music, and all that jazz!
