Chelsea Newsletter - Thursday 30th December
Covering: Chelsea more likely to buy than recall in LWB pursuit, Digne 'makes most sense', Azpi set to leave? Chelsea vs Brighton reactions, John Terry is home, plus more...
Hey folks,
Before we get into the game last night, John Terry is back home at Chelsea! Read all about that bit of news here, news that we delivered to you over SIX WEEKS ago now, in our general news sweep up that also includes a lot of stories about replacing Ben Chilwell.
Thomas Tuchel’s face above says it all, another poor result for us last night and it is time to face the facts we have just not been good enough collectively now for some time. Absolutely deflated after that result last night once again, it’s getting painful now.
I’ve got a longer review in my my watch-along reactions article here.
Meanwhile, more on who Chelsea might seek to replace Ben Chilwell for the rest of the season…
Well, Lucas Digne certainly makes a lot of sense, and I bought in my buddy Harry Brooks, the popular football analyst and coach, to give his views on the situation which you can read here.
We have another article here on the left wing back situation and whether Chelsea might look to do a loan recall, or a permanent/loan buy.
And finally, there is never a complete newsletter right now without some contract talk regarding one of our current defenders set to be free agents this summer, and this time it is the turn of our club captain, Cesar Azpilicueta. You can read the latest on that here.
Myself and Dan are recording a transfer window special Podcast this morning answering all your questions from earlier this week about January and the summer based on what we have been told, and our own opinions. So don’t miss that, will be live Friday morning at 8am before you lot go out and get drunk for New Years! Ha, just joking… It’ll be me getting drunk! I may have ‘one’ to be fair, Chelsea drive me to it!
Thanks all, Si.
