Bakayoko in limbo... Is the market still open?

Frank said after Utd game if I remember correctly he has high hopes for James this season.

Personally I think he could win the ball back quickly. He is a tall guy. His main asset to me is his comfort on the ball and ability to run at opposing players at good pace. He also likes to score. We need him back.

Moments like these could have a really big impact in a small boy's career and ambitions.

4-3-3 like against Pool. Kill them on breaks. Please score when chance.

Doesn't look very good however don't know how much you should worry about players missing shots in a training. Frank should be the best mentor for shooting on this planet. So I'm not overly concerned about that. I remember reading somewhere way back in Germany they don't allow players missing shots in training. They demand you hit the ball between the pipes. If you miss, you train as long as they start hitting the target. Not sure if we have such a demanding style...

Davide Zappacosta is finalising a loan move from Chelsea to Roma, opening the way for Reece James once he returns from injury. #cfc Matt Law

He didn't sign anything.

We have very good legs in both sides of the pitch in defence and in mf. You could argue that Azpi doesn't have those legs but at least James does when he is introduced.

Absolutely. The players will pretty quickly start to question the style and tactics and if the striker doesn't score they wont play the ball to him and the mess is really on. This is what happened with Sarri last season. Pressure start to mount on Frank and the players. Everyone always say it is so easy when you win. It is a habit and it carries on and lifts everyone. We need the hard work to be paid very soon. Hopefully in this game.

Wolves scored a brilliant goal yesterday against ManU and after it they had VAR checking it for offside for a couple of minutes in a level of centimeters with some graphical guidelines. I really didn't enjoy the moment. Looks like we are in for some embarassing moments with VAR this season. All in all I'm into VAR but yesterday and particulartly City's disallowed goal against Spurs it looks like VAR needs to chill the f**k out.

Looks like Michy is not training as hard as he is expected.

Our starting 11 could look much different as the season progresses. Rudiger, James, CHO and Ruben all in the side.

I don't care what we think. Everyone outside Chelsea expect us to win as they are not playing much attention to us otherwise. Roman expect us to win, Marina expect us to win. There is a better understanding if we lose but if we face any other team than Liverpool or City we are looking to win. That is just the way it is and it is a good thing.

Weird to see a new face in the team that has totally owned his place and is showing leadership. And he is 19 years old from our own academy.
