Kept it tight and then went for it with the changes, but the damage was done in the first leg. JP played very well to hold the ball up, Delap wide was unusual. Trevoh and Wes did very well at the back. Hope we have something left in the tank for the weekend.

Seems like we're bringing Sarr from Strasbourg, but why? We already have 5 CBs (Wes, Josh, Trev, Ben & Tosin) plus Levi to return and Axel likely to leave. What's the plan? Are we cooked after no preseason? BTW how good was Wes 2nd half, that assist a good reminder of what he can do.

Another back 5 causing us difficulties - what does Rosenior need to get the team doing to solve the problem? I'd have liked to see 2 strikers to occupy the defence, but Liam isn't Mike Bassett!

Indeed; not only did we sign a player who underwhelmed for us already, but we did it to exchange a player who had more goal contributions and better value on the pitch, we torpedoed the deal to take a player with a profile we needed (Samu), and we got ourselves in a deeper relationship with Mendes.

We are receiving desperate messages of starvation from #Gaza, including from our colleagues.
Food prices have increased 40 fold.
UNRWA has enough food for the entire population for over three months, stockpiled just outside Gaza.
Lift the siege and let aid in safely and at scale.

Season gets a B - achieved objectives of CL football and a trophy. Disappointed with domestic cups, mid-season slump, and majority of transfers (Neto and Tosin the positives?)
Question - how many sales will Chelsea manage before the club world cup? Any rules about having to use star players?

I'm hoping the Ekiteke price comes down a bit, otherwise I'd be interested in what PSG might ask for Ramos (more of a box-centric option) or Muani (compares well with Jackson in terms of build up)

I might be drawing wrong conclusions, but it seemed to me like he was being kept around at the end of the summer as depth (a bit like Ampadu in previous windows) but then they ran out of time to find him a loan club

Enjoyed reading the article as per usual. For SoumarΓ© on FΓ©lix, when I saw the replays, I wondered if the challenge might be punished for excessive force - FΓ©lix had to jump, and SoumarΓ© didn't look very in control
