Chelsea have lost three consecutive home games for the first time since November 1993

For what it's worth, Chelsea will still get top 4.

Rudiger is expected to miss out again on Sunday. "It is groin pain a little, minor injury," confirmed Tuchel. "I hope, and the doctors told me today is unfortunately too soon. I don't think he will play against West Ham."

Breaking: Sir Lewis Hamilton & Serena Williams have agreed to invest millions of pounds in Sir Martin Broughton's #Chelsea takeover bid.

Sir Lewis Hamilton will play an active role in diversity and racism issues as part of the Sir Martin Broughton consortium if they succeed in their bid to buy #Chelsea.

People need to realise Chelsea were beginning a rebuild when Lampard got sacked. Tuchel came in and won a UCL with a dysfunctional squad due to his own brilliance. Tuchel has outdone all expectations with these players and needs to be backed to build a more competitive squad.

A decision on Chelsea’s new owners could come TODAY, but bidders this morning were anticipating to wait until next week. It is believed that final bids topped £3BN.

Kovacic will be unavailable too

Rudiger hasn't made his mind up yet. Part of why is he's waiting for Chelsea's new owner to be clear. He has been listening to other offers (including his brother-agent's visit to Barca). But he's already ruled out #MUFC and I don't see ten Hag's arrival prompting a U-turn.

EXCLUSIVE: Real Madrid are closing in on a deal for Antonio Rudiger.

New contacts were made after Chelsea’s win at the Bernabéu and Rudiger’s representatives are close to finding an agreement with the club. 🇩🇪⚪️

Exclusive: As I understand, Chelsea have a long-term interest in Christopher Nkunku and have scouted him for the past couple of seasons. #CFC https://t.co/Jm7dXb5XmN

Antonio Rüdiger will leave Chelsea on a free transfer as he can’t wait more than 2 months for new owners. No bid on the table. He’s always been respectful - but it’s time for a new challenge. It’s over. 🔵 #CFC

…Real Madrid are close to find an agreement to sign Rüdiger. ⚪️⏳

It’s understood that Rudiger has not been given a time frame by anyone at Chelsea as to when talks could re open again and that is a major reason he is leaving Chelsea.

Chelsea FC…

- Sign Tuchel a RWB ❌

- Give Tuchel a striker that doesn’t suit him ✅

- Sign Tchouameni ❌

- Bring in a washed Saul ✅

- Sign Kounde ❌

- Bring back Sarr ✅

- Bring in a LB ❌

- Recall Kenedy ✅

- Renew Rudiger’s contract ❌

- Let him leave on a free ✅

£230,000 a week for Rudiger was a fair offer from Chelsea if we are being honest. It’s also fair that Rudiger feels he deserves more. This CB situation at Chelsea is a complete and utter mess.

Neither Rudiger nor Christensen should be treated as snakes or traitors - that's childish and corrosive for two players who contributed to a European Cup last season. Not even close to Courtois situation. Demand the club doesn't allow a situation like this again.

I think Kalidou Koulibaly is the best #Rudiger replacement and possible upgrade. #CFC #Chelsea

My thoughts on #Rudiger?

It’s Cobham season. Trust Tuchel.

#Chelsea XI to face West Ham: Mendy, Azpilicueta, Silva, Christensen, Loftus-Cheek, Kante, Jorginho, Alonso, Mount, Werner, Havertz

Trevoh Chalobah indeed starts in place of Andreas Christensen.

AC not warming up.. Perhaps toothache

Tuchel: “Reece felt some discomfort in his hamstrings and so he misses out today.” #cfc
