Chelsea started strongly.

Two super strikes from Alonso & Chalobah

Trevoh Chalobah has been with Chelsea since he was an 8yo scoring on his PL debut

"When I scored, I didn't know what to do. I dropped to my knees. I was crying."

Striker Tammy Abraham has completed a 40m euro (£34m) move to Italian side Roma from Chelsea.

Is Abraham really worth that much?

Nope, and you get bet that Mourinho will ruin him like he has so many other young players in the past.

Chelsea forward Christian Pulisic has tested positive for coronavirus and will miss Sunday's Premier League game at Arsenal.

The United States international had not been training this week and Blues boss Thomas Tuchel confirmed that the midfielder was self isolating.

"He is not training or available for the game," said Tuchel.

Pulisic wrote on Instagram that he is fully vaccinated and had "no symptoms so far".

Chelsea looking like potential champions under Turcel

Even their centre-backs know how to strike a ball.

How good is Kante in their midfield? would love him at Leeds alongside Kalvin.

A centre-forward goal from CB Christiansen & a lovely dinked goal from Havertz.

Chelsea look a big, muscular side.

On and off rumours with Haaland to Chelsea, but beggars belief how many elite strikers do they want?

Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner will both miss a few matches after being injured in the 4-0 Champions League win over Malmo, confirmed boss Thomas Tuchel.

Lukaku twisted his ankle in a tackle which led to a penalty and Werner hurt his hamstring while running - both in the first half.

"It will take a while for both of them, and we will need more examinations to be precise," said Tuchel.

Re: Chelsea Thread - Blues have injury problems too!

Post by mentalcase »

They have 323 injured players but can still choose between 2 full international teams, whereas we, can only choose between pet projects and mis-firing midfielders/strikers/wingers, oh, and the odd out of favour U23.

True Mental, Chelsea, Liverpool & Citeh could put out two strong teams.

Beyond our first 12 or 13 players, we are vulnerable!

Mateo Kovacic testing positive for Covid-19 is a "huge setback" for Chelsea, says manager Thomas Tuchel.

The Croatian midfielder had returned to training on Monday after being out since October with a hamstring problem, but tested positive on Tuesday.

"He was in training yesterday and with a big smile and it was a pure pleasure to have him back," said Tuchel.

"But he tested positive today, for coronavirus, so he's quarantining for a few days."

Tuchel had hoped to ease Kovacic, 27, back into action this week with N'Golo Kante sidelined with a knee issue and Jorginho struggling with a back niggle which will keep him out of Wednesday's CL game.

Ben Chilwell is a doubt too.
