Carabao Cup action this Wednesday. 👊

🗣 Reece James: "We’ve had two wins from three in the league. It’s a small bump in the road but we’ll be back. We have to focus on ourselves and not let other teams distract us.

It’s gameweek three; we have 35 more to go. With time, patience and hard work we will be in and around it."

Emiliano Martinez has been nominated for the Ballon D’Or Men’s Goalkeeper of the Year. 💙🙌

 🗣️ Xabi Alonso ahead of Chelsea’s match against Leeds United [H] in the Carabao Cup third round:

🏥 𝐎𝐧 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐬:

“No, not yet [on whether Moises Caicedo and Marco Palestra will be available].

“They are still not ready to go, and it’s not the moment to take an early risk. So we go game by game with them, but it’s too early.

“Levi Colwill is okay for tomorrow.”

Alonso also confirmed that summer arrivals Emmanuel Emegha and Jordan Henderson remain sidelined.

🤔 𝐎𝐧 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐚 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐝:

“We always assess everything. Where are we coming from, where are we going. We try to take all the games, all the cups very seriously and we will, where we are, have the best possible team.

“We need everyone involved. The more people you have involved in the team and the more people they feel that they are part of playing minutes, the better it is for the level of players, even for the ones that they play more.

“I think that it’s important that we use all of them, that they have this feeling. And so far, every day, the dynamic is very, very good.”

😤 𝐎𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐫:

“We want to compete because that’s the best way to win games. You need to adapt to compete and it comes in two ways. It comes in the football way and it comes in the spirit and mentality side and in everything we can get better.

“Leeds is going to be quite a rivalry game. Tomorrow we are expecting a very, very intense game, very tough, very many situations of duels, but we need to try to cope with that, find solutions and know that this is going to be an important game.”
