Chelsea Newsletter: Friday 24th Feb
Covering: Big Spurs preview and predictions, The lineup I'd pick, Addressing the mood at Cobham, Sources on Potter's future, Protecting Mudryk, Plus all the latest Chelsea news and transfer rumours!
Morning all,
It’s a match weekend and Chelsea make the short trip to London rivals Tottenham in the Sunday lunchtime Premier League game.
The next three games feel very pinnacle for Graham Potter’s Chelsea career, and the Spurs game could really set the tone one way or the other. Fan pressure is hugely ramping up and Potter really needs a result on Sunday. I’ve got my full match preview and predictions article here.
So the above features my predicted lineup, but that is certainly not my preferred lineup. I’ve got a slightly different shout for a starting Xl this week, you can see that here and read my reasons why.
With Potter under pressure, where exactly do we stand? Will he be sacked? Are the club truly backing him for the long-term still? I’ve got some sourced snippets on that in this one here, which is addressing the latest reports on the mood at Cobham right now.
Mykhailo Mudryk has yet to hit the ground running in Chelsea blue, but there are little doubts that he soon will. I believe Graham Potter has wisely been protecting him in the last couple of games. I speak about that in here, as well as give my verdict, and some great quotes from someone who knows him very well.
Finally, grab all the latest Chelsea news and transfer rumours from the last 24 hours in here.
We had our latest Podcast out yesterday with insider Fraser Fletcher as guest. He gave us some very interesting unheard information, so you don’t want to miss this one! Find it here.
That’s it for now folks, back again on Sunday in time for the big game! Any big updates of course I’ll stick out on the Substack App chat. If you haven’t got it, you can download it on Apple or Android! I always post my updates on there when I’m on ‘days off’.
COME ON CHELSEA!!! UTC!!!
Peace, Si.
