Thanks mate! It's always fun to join them

Chelsea love, love, love playing against a high line. So many candidates to hit those passes over the top

Joao Pedro is the Ballon d’Ink

Tonight would be a great time for it to change, but nothing in his Chelsea career so far has suggested Jorgensen is as good as Sanchez. Huge call from Rosenior.

Sanchez has now lost the trust of three Chelsea coaches. Maybe an upgrade is needed on both?

Arsenal haven't been great today and their fans are audibly anxious, but they have discipline and a great goalkeeper.

Chelsea have neither.

At this point I wouldn't be shocked if they claimed Prestianni's Patronus takes the form of Eusebio

Chelsea have the Premier League’s toughest run-in – but could it suit them? Chelsea might find more attacking space in the final 11 games of the season

Chelsea have the hardest remaining fixtures in the Premier League, and Opta's supercomputer thinks they're likeliest to finish 6th.

But they can also affect their principal rivals, as well as influencing the title race and relegation battle.

Liam Rosenior says Chelsea marked wrong player for Burnley equaliser Zian Fleming was unmarked when he headed in Burnley's equaliser but Rosenior refused to reveal the Chelsea player he was talking about.

Rosenior says an unnamed Chelsea player marked the wrong man for Zian Flemming’s late equaliser against Burnley.

Why Chelsea struggle when defending set pieces Chelsea have the worst expected goals record when defending set pieces this season

That was the third set-piece goal Chelsea have conceded this season while defending with 10 men.

Getting some serious flashbacks on this one

Ashley Barnes is on the Stamford Bridge pitch for Burnley a full 11 years after studding Nemanja Matic.

I can only conclude he's a Sith

Sharper finishing, smart runs and a penalty-box presence: Joao Pedro is now a proper No 9 The Chelsea striker has had a superb first season at the club and has helped fill such a vital position with ease

This is now officially the most prolific league season of Joao Pedro's career (not counting penalties).

Chelsea’s new contract reality: Players have long deals, but some want improved terms Chelsea introduced a policy of long-term contracts, but they will still have to be tackled in the near future

Sources told @theathleticfc.bsky.social that one player turned down proposed terms. Chelsea sources deny this is the case, reiterating the club’s stance that all contract negotiations are addressed in the summer.

A piece with @sjohnsonsport.bsky.social looking at what Chelsea might consider one of those good problems: some of their best players on ultra-long, incentive-laden contracts want to negotiate improved terms. Fernandez and Caicedo are among them.

Why Chelsea struggle when defending set pieces Chelsea have the worst expected goals record when defending set pieces this season

Chelsea have given up the most xG in the Premier League from defensive set-pieces this season.

I took a closer look at why (long throw-ins have a lot to do with it)

YouTube video by Premier League 10 Minutes of N'Golo Kanté Being Legendary

Kante has a case as the best midfielder the Premier League has seen. The engine of two different title-winning teams, MOTM in the three biggest games of a Champions League season.

Could do absolutely everything, and frequently did. Never seen anything like him

There will be tougher tests, but that was a very impressive first start for Mamadou Sarr. Presence and poise far beyond his years

He surely won’t care if he wins the title, but Eze to Arsenal feels like this season’s version of Grealish to Manchester City: one of the Premier League’s most entertaining players reduced to a joyless cog in a high-functioning machine. When he even gets on the pitch
