 Thiago Silva was crucial to Chelsea's win against Spurs.  In a match where Spurs seemed to have a high advantage over Chelsea, Thiago Silva restored balance to the Chelsea defense. The return of Axel Disasi to centre-back saw Levi Colwill return to the left of defence, where he looked as if he was struggling with the occasion and was substituted at half-time Even Pochettino was full of praise for the Brazilian after another superb display at the back. He said: “Of course, he is an unbelievable player, and he is really important for us.” Silva’s leadership and abilities will be needed again at the weekend when things don’t get any easier in the Premier League for Chelsea.

 Jude Bellingham had spoken highly of the Chelsea star in the past.  Jude Bellingham has praised Chelsea star Reece James as a perfect athlete and no doubt will want to play alongside with him in the future.  Bellingham had said of James in the past: “He’s one of the best players in his position in the league and maybe in Europe,” Bellingham said on England's official YouTube channel. The interviewer then spoke about how strong James is and Bellingham responded with: “(He's) alive. “Honestly, I got close to him a few times in training and you just bounce off him. He’s so strong, and fast, and powerful that he’s like the perfect athlete. “I’m trying to get to that level [physically], but I’m quite a way behind.” Agent Bellingham! Real Madrid are currently hot on the trails of Reece James.

 In the last few days, Chelsea have been linked with a deal for both strikers, although it remains to be seen who they finally settle for.  With Jackson's current poor finishing in front of the goal, the Blues are believed to be looking for a long-term striking option while he continues to develop.  Chelsea may have to settle for either one of the two strikers; Osimhen and Toney.  In this video, we'll take a look at all goals, assists, skills, including finishings of both strikers and decide who is the more lethal finisher, perfect for Chelsea.  VIDEO: Victor Osimhen skills, goals, assists & finishing vs Ivan Toney: who is the better striker for Chelsea? Victor Osimhen vs Ivan Toney. 

 The Chelsea Legend has praised the new signing while attributing him as the best Chelsea player this season.  Cole Palmer is one player who has made instant impact since joining Chelsea from Manchester City and it looks like Manchester City's loss of their hottest Academy prospect is Chelsea's gain.  Currently the club's penalty taker, Palmer has proven to be an effective replacement for Kai Havertz who was sold in the summer to Arsenal. Against the Blues' most recent win against Blackburn Rovers, he was the most lethal attacker going forward in the game.  He is now undroppable in the Chelsea squad and has attracted praise from even former Chelsea Legend who likens him to Bernardo Silva and has termed him the best Chelsea player so far this season.  He said: "I have to say, Cole Palmer right now is on fire," he said. "He is Chelsea’s best, most influential player, no question about that.  "Every time he gets the ball, something's going to happen...

Chelsea don't seem to have got much right in the transfer market since Todd Boehly took over, but Cole Palmer is an exception according to former Blues defender Jason Cundy. Chelsea have spent more than £1 billion on players since Boehly succeeded Roman Abramovich in ownership at Stamford Bridge in May 2022, but find themselves languishing in 11th in the Premier League this season. Of that outlay, £40 million of it went on Manchester City academy graduate Palmer on transfer deadline day last summer, and the attacking midfielder has been one of the few positives.  Palmer's assist for Raheem Sterling's goal in the 2-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers in the EFL Cup on Wednesday took his goal-involvements up to seven in 12 games this season and Cundy, who had a rare night off from talkSPORT to co-commentate the game, was impressed.

Ball-winning and possession-controlling central midfielders have become football’s latest valuable profile. Chelsea’s acquisitions of Moises Caicedo from Brighton & Hove Albion and Romeo Lavia of Southampton in recent days are proof of that. At £115million ($146m, €134m), Caicedo is the third-most expensive footballer ever, a British record transfer, and now means that three of the top 10 all-time fees have been paid for defensive midfielders — alongside Declan Rice, signed by Arsenal this summer from West Ham, and Enzo Fernandez, who joined Chelsea from Benfica in January. A fee of £53m for Lavia was agreed, which would rank inside the top 100 fees in history. Like much of Chelsea’s recent transfer activity, signing both these midfielders looks gluttonous, especially as last season’s squad was literally too big. Caicedo has featured in most of Chelsea's games since his signing with Romeo Lavia yet to make a single appearance due to injury.  In this video, we take a look at bot...

  The Chelsea defender has revealed his plans to coach the Blues in the future.  Chelsea defender, Thiago Silva has expressed his desire to be Chelsea's coach in the future.  Thiago Silva said when asked if he could return to AC Milan, per Football.London:  "I have already made my history here at AC Milan, so this isn't the case here anymore at the moment. If this could've happened, it should've been before I joined Chelsea. But I don't know about the future. Who knows what will happen. We will have to think then.  "I am very happy to be at Chelsea, a very big club great professionals. In the future, we will see, maybe [I will come back] as the coach. Who knows. Thiago Silva's contract expires in June, and here is what the Chelsea veteran had to say when asked about an extension:  ""It is not the right time to talk about new contracts, so I can not accurately answer this question. For me now, what is important is to continue playing to the h...

 SPORT | FOOTBALL • Chelsea player ratings v Blackburn: Enzo Fernandez purrs in midfield but no bite from Nicolas Jackson. The Blues progressed in the Carabao Cup in a welcome break from an increasingly difficult Premier League campaign. Chelsea comfortably beat Blackburn to reach the quarter-final of the Carabao Cup through goals from Benoit Badiashile and Raheem Sterling.  Badiashile made his first appearance since May after a long injury and turned in the first goal after a calamitous mistake from goalkeeper Leopold Wahlstedt. Sterling added a second after Callum Brittain was caught in possession, curling a stunning finish in front of the Matthew Harding End.  Reece James made his first start since August in a crucial morale-boosting victory ahead of a trip to Tottenham on Monday.  Robert Sanchez - 6 Mostly comfortable but had his customary shaky moment with the ball. Claimed the clean sheet with an amazing last minute save on Arnor Sigurdsson. Reece James - 7 The...
