The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Tuesday 19th September 2023!
Morning all,
It’s frustrating that we have to wait a week now for the next Chelsea match, something we will have to do a lot this season due to having no European football. Some people might wonder why I want to watch Chelsea again already but for me, I just want us to bounce back and get a win. I can feel it coming and we are so close, we just need to finish chances. It’s a long wait between matches and I’m just eager for us to go out there and win a game!
More reactions and roundups from the Bournemouth game on Sunday now and general reactions to our first five games of the season where of course, we have only managed five points and are sat in 14th position in the league.
There was a lot of quotes that I have put on yesterday’s live blog from pundits, players, former players, managers, and more. It was also a lively blog with you all giving your opinion on things right now. So to get that, and all the latest Chelsea news and transfer news from the last 24 hours, tap into that here. Transfer news on Ivan Toney in this one, confirming a bit of what I have been reporting these last few weeks and months.
Carrying on from that, I’ve honed in on a few of those comments and reactions from pundits and to be honest, I think what some of them are saying are certainly some warranted concerns. As much as I think the results are coming, we cannot ignore the concerns and some issues right now. I give my view on all of them in here.
Meanwhile, there has been some news going around about the future of Reece James. I have a big sourced update on that here, including news of serious interest coming in. But what is the player’s stance and what is Chelsea’s stance? Read the article to find out!
Ben Jacobs is often the calm head that many need to hear from when times are not ideal! With him not being a Chelsea fan he can separate any emotion and passion from his views, which is why I know many of you like to hear from him after a bad result. Well, look no further than here for his latest exclusive for us. Also, some interesting inside info in this too on Reece James and Ivan Toney!! Must read!
And the last one today, we had our man The Score put his opinions down on paper. As always, his views differ a little to my own, but this is a great article here on our injury problems and the current situation we are in.
Thanks for stopping by, see you all on the live blog today from 8am!
Peace, Si.
