Chelsea Newsletter: Wednesday 19th April

Covering: Real Madrid reflections, Sources on Ivan Toney, Were summer signings a mistake at the time? Polls: Keep, sell, or loan, Plus all the latest Chelsea news and transfer rumours!

Morning!

Chelsea were in action at Stamford Bridge last night hosting Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals.

We saw a much more spirited and passionate performance from the Chelsea players and I applaud that. But in the end how it all played out just sums up our season and the gloomy feel around our club right now. Chelsea are out of the Champions League and our season is over. You can get my full thoughts, reactions, and reflections here.

We have A LOT of work to do this summer, especially on the squad. So by popular demand from some of our subs in our community, I have complied a full squad keep, sell, or loan poll here so you can make your decisions on the current squad. I’ll be following this up with selecting who you want to see signed and eventually compiling our final squad for next list for next season. So look out for that one and please do take part!

Next up, there has been a lot being said about our owners and some of the mistakes they have made. I think a lot of the criticism has been unfair purely because it’s in hindsight. I’m certainly not saying that they have not made mistakes because they absolutely have, but I do think we need to cast our minds back to the summer transfer window at the time and judge on those memories as well as in hindsight. Get my thoughts on that here.

A sourced story up next and it’s on Brentford striker Ivan Toney. Chelsea are actively searching for a potential new striker this summer, could they turn to Toney? I’ve got info on that here.

Finally, the live blog from yesterday can be found here, covering anything that went on in the world of Chelsea including quotes, news, and transfer rumours! Get all your news in one place!

It’s the old mans birthday (the reason I started supporting Chelsea) this Thursday so we are recording the Podcast a day early today. Good timing really as myself and Macca can review the Madrid game! That’ll be out later today around 6pm!

Peace, Si.
