The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Wednesday 1st May 2024!
Morning all,
We are in May already! Although if you’re in the UK, you’d be forgiven for thinking we are still in December. This is the month that the football season ends for another term, and then the transfer season begins! That is when this site really does come to life, so you’re in the best place possible to get all the inside transfer news for our plans this summer!
One situation that we now need to focus on is replacing Thiago Silva this summer. The Brazilian announced he is leaving the club at the end of this season, and for me, replacing him will now be the most important decision we need to get right this summer, alongside a new striker. Much more on all of that in here.
Chelsea face Tottenham on Thursday night, and is there a chance to see a couple more new faces from the academy? With Ben Chilwell out injured, is there a chance we get to see left back Dylan Williams make the bench? Williams is a player I rate, and I have got some words on him in my ‘one to watch’ article here.
There was a daft debate going on yesterday on socials which was actually started by bored Arsenal fans! Kai Havertz vs Cole Palmer was on the timeline again, largely because they figured out Havertz has the same amount of non-penalty goals as Palmer. I mean, one plays as a striker, the other as an attacking midfielder, one is three years older than the other - but they chose to ignore all of the facts. I have many more facts and words on this in here! I realise I didn’t even mention that one cost £20m more than the other too!
I am delighted that we have our anchor man back this week from his nice relaxing holiday in the sunshine. Luke’s got a bit of the holiday blues, so go give him some love on his first article back for us here looking at the results whilst he was away and giving his view on them!
And as always, we have the news roundups covering all your latest general Chelsea news from across all outlets and sources from the last 24 hours in here.
I’ll have the latest live blog cooking on the home page today from around 8.30am, be there!
Peace, Si.
