Vibes are bad at Chelsea now – very bad.
The team have been blasted out of the Champions League and look unlikely to qualify for next year’s edition through the league after two defeats on the spin there too.
Meanwhile senior players have been openly speaking to the media about the mess at the club. It’s all getting ugly.
Fans who want to believe only have one recourse in these situations – looking ahead to the summer where we can make some transfers. We can all pretend that just one more signing can fix us…
Midfielder already looks guaranteed to be a Blue this summer
Two transfers are already locked in: Emmanuel Emegha from Strasbourg and Geovany Quenda from Sporting. But it feels like we can almost add another to the list. The talk about Valentin Barco has gone on for so long, and this week the move has been effectively guaranteed by sources in Argentina.
There will be doubts about this one, not least because Barco struggled when he was at Brighton. He does look to have developed since then, but is he really going to raise this team’s floor?
In other news…
Chelsea are likely to pick a pretty strong team for today’s game – but we still expect at least one academy debut.
Enzo Fernandez is one player we know won’t be playing, and his agent isn’t too happy about it.

Santos and essugo future player’s for Chelsea with Lavia , he needs man management . I like to see Acheampong playing in central midfield as DCM . It will improve his defence and his a dribbler and needs to polish his passing the ball . Good height can helps back four defensively . They need to defend solidly against set pieces . They need to control both wings and central midfield . Don’t give a room to any opposition to pass the well . Close them down shadow them . Look at PSG both legs they man mark Palmer . Chelsea FC should play collectively from defence to offence no superstar attitude . Always be humble and enjoy playing football with intent of winning the game than fake and lazy performance . Every one has right for pay rise but depends on the merit of achievement and loyalty performance . Its been a long time this club hasn’t win EPL . Remaining game’s are tough . But play your heart out in the pitch and show that you’re really a professional footballer that has a contract obligation to play hard and win games for the club not fake performance . Chelsea needs a strong player that hold up the ball well and strikes the ball well that GK can’t save it . Chelsea missing a midfielder that can score outside and inside of the box .
