The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Thursday 3rd August!
Morning all!
If like me you are in the UK and have no chance of staying up over night to watch Chelsea in the week, you will be waking up this morning to the news of Chelsea drawing their final pre-season game 1-1 against Borussia Dortmund. I’ll have my thoughts out on the game ASAP in my debrief article, just as soon as I’ve watched it back this morning, but there was an injury concern for Christopher Nkunku, and Mason Burstow grabbed our goal! Quotes from Pochettino and Carney Chukwuemeka will go on the live blog this morning when I fire that up! But the good news is we have gone through pre-season unbeaten!! UTC!
As well as the game, there has been so much going on this week as we approach the latter end of the transfer window.
Things are changing quick, but I have penned the latest on our biggest transfer stories of the moment and have THREE sourced stories for you.
The first one you can find here and is all on the Moises Caicedo situation and the alternative names being mentioned. I also have my opinion on some of those names in this, and some very interesting sourced snippets.
What you should probably do before diving in to the rest of the sourced news is to scroll down yesterdays live blog here. This will have the latest on any developments on any of these big stories, as well as extra sourced news from me that I didn’t add in to any of the articles today.
Back to the big sourced stories now, and the next one is on the developing negotiations between Chelsea and Juventus regarding Romelu Lukaku going back to the Serie A, and Dusan Vlahovic heading to Stamford Bridge. Could this actually happen? Find out here.
The final sourced story is a real mash-up of names just concluding everything I’ve been told on a host of players including Mohammed Kudus, Michael Olise, Armando Broja, Noni Madueke, and Trevoh Chalobah! Get the latest on all of them in here.
Finally, the latest set of polls are very juicy this week. We have some big stories and big choices to make on a number of players. And you can have your say and send your messages here. Names in this one include Vlahovic, Broja, Sanchez, Caicedo, Adams, Alvarez, Kudus, Olise, Angelo, Madueke, Sterling, Chalobah, and more…
Right then, Podcast day! And we have a new test host we are trying out today who is none other than popular figure Louis Beneventi! We are recording in the morning today, so that will be out hopefully around lunchtime! I’ll drop that in your emails ASAP and will be looking for your measured feedback once again please!
I’ll see you all on the live blog from around 8am anyways!
Peace, Si.
