Welcome back RLC & Tomori. 💙

No Marc Guiu in the matchday squad for Sunderland again. Two friendlies in two days and not in the matchday squad in either

#INGAME

These days we just breeze through teams like some training exercise

A stat for you all.

Chelsea have played 23 games since March.

João Pedro has more goals for Chelsea than anyone else in that time. (5)

Standing ovation for Ruben Loftus Cheek on his return to Stamford Bridge 🤩

#INGAME

That was a great striker instinct from Delap. Just pounce and finish

Ooh there's another one😎

Reece James: “We are confident, as you mentioned we’re WORLD CHAMPIONS” [C5]

🗣 Enzo Maresca: "To be honest, since I arrived, not many players have arrived. In terms of last summer, last January and this summer, we tried to change the ones that we thought that we need to change. We are trying to do the things that we need to do."

🗣 Enzo Maresca: "It has been a fantastic season. Some moments have been very difficult. We tried to manage all different kinds of situations, problems, but in the end, the way we finished has been great."

🗣 Maresca on Palmer's loss of form last season:

"He had around 18 months where he was fantastic, then it's normal to drop a little bit. So I was not surprised. The most important thing about Cole is that he has always been very professional and works hard. Then at the end, he finished in the way everyone knows."

🗣 Enzo Maresca: "When you are at Chelsea, the target has to be always to win games and titles. This is the minimum required. So we're going to try."

#AfterThought

Maresca's level of loyalty to his players is crazy. He sees something in them, calms when they make mistakes to achieve what he sees in them, and still pushes them supportively to achieve the levels even when the whole world is against them. ....An example is almost everyone, but Sanchez stands out.

I will not be shocked if the man doesn't dip into the market for Colwill replacement and instead chooses to push two Right footed CB there.... Or even go in fully with Acheampong or Hato.

Intelligence and Stubbornness.

‼️ Chelsea are still assessing whether to add another centre back for Enzo Maresca but intend to sell before making more buys.

Garnacho missed 14 Big chances in the Premier League last season. Only Jackson (19) missed more big chances than him in the Chelsea squad.

🚨 🚨 Chelsea are advancing on a new contract with Marc Cucurella.

Chelsea could sign a defender in case of good opportunity on the market. We have to keep an eye on it with Enzo Maresca pushing.
