🚨 Maresca: “We build with Levi in the middle. Last year, we played 64 games. We played 64 games with Levi and Tosin. The only one that can do that job well is Tosin. The rest they can adapt. Hato never played making three in the middle. It's not about being a central defender."

The man badly needs a CB

🚨 Enzo Maresca on Crystal Palace test:

"Very difficult. They beat in two finals probably the two best teams in England over the last 10 or 15 years."

Buying an Arsenal academy player for next to nothing, flipping him for £20m a year later, and then getting 25% of the cut a year after that when he goes for more than their biggest ever sale is absolutely filthy business.

The total we get for Hutchinson would be Arsenal's 3rd biggest sale.

Arsenal, Spurs, and Atletico Madrid looked into Alejandro Garnacho before deciding not to sign him. Chelsea are now the favourites to get the Argentine.

Fofana The wall 💙💪

Did you hear the Liverpool fans even when their team bottled a two nil lead? Did you hear them? DID YOU HEAR THEM?

Uganda is Blue. 🇺🇬💙

Levi Colwill’s raw stats from last season look impressive — most progressive passes (98), passes under pressure (817), line-breaking passes (350), and chances created (14) — but these totals are inflated by the number of games he played.

Per game, others match or beat him: Adarabioyo and Acheampong make slightly more passes under pressure, most rivals have better progressive pass numbers, Fofana creates more chances, and Badiashile leads in line-breaking passes. This doesn’t include new signing Hato.

Colwill’s leadership and experience under Roberto De Zerbi remain valuable, but the data shows Chelsea could replace him from within.

Chelsea will need to cut out the mistakes, only relegated Southampton (51) made more errors leading to shots last season to Chelsea's 45. [The Times]

Colwill was at the heart of almost every defensive partnership last season

He’s going to be a tough loss

Here’s a video that highlights what Colwill does in our build-up and defence:

🇧🇷 Estêvão:

"I want to settle quickly. It’s a dream come true to play in the biggest competitions, the Premier League and the Champions League. The 2026 World Cup is a goal too, but first, I have to prove myself at Chelsea." 🍿

Estêvão: "I can’t wait to to experience all the iconic grounds around England. I want to see everything. I’m into football heritage. England lives and breathes it, I want to soak all of it in."

I will admit my head was hot when we didn't take Petrovic to the CWC. But he's worse than I thought, let these directors cook. 👏 👏

Doesn't mean I won't disagree with them but they have my respect.

This is how you pronounce the names in the Chelsea squad! 🤣💙
