The magic of the cup. Fleetwood Town have knocked out Arsenal.

Gone till the international break then…

Have tried to source a more specific timeframe than Alonso’s “a few weeks, let’s see how many” answer on Joao Pedro, but been told there isn’t a return date set as of yet and that focus right now is just on recovering well, so it’s something of a wait and see

RT @jbsticks: Seems the inevitable has happened for some on here. Two months in and now Alonso is a bad manager. From thinking we could never appoint such a manager, to now he’s actually not good enough. It’s a legacy from Roman and the main reason Chelsea fans get taken the piss out of.

Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso on why Estevao and Welbeck did not start against Spurs?: “I assess all the options we have, what we have been preparing all the week, to choose the best team for each game. That was the case on Saturday and that is the case tomorrow” (via @BobbyVincentFL)

Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso on Emmanuel Emegha: “He's been training for the last 10 days in a good way to allow him to build up his fitness. Maybe tomorrow he has the chance to play.” #CFC Emegha. Your time is now.

🚨 🏥 BREAKING - Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso on Joao Pedro: “He has an injury of his thigh and is going to be out for ‘a few weeks’. Let's see how many. He's not ready for the next games.” #CFC The curse of the number 9 jersey is here.

RT @ChelsTransfer: Hopefully, the rumour about Joao Pedro is not true 🙏

Following talks on Monday between the club’s senior leadership figures, including co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, CEO Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox, the decision has been made to give Carrick and the players more time. Michael Carrrick will be in charge when the club travel to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. (via @TheAthleticFC) #CFC #MUFC

🇧🇷 According to French outlet But! Football Club, PSG now plan to sign a new wide man mid-season. Chelsea would let Estêvão Willian join PSG on loan in the winter window, with 3 conditions attached. They want any loan to be a straight loan, with no option or obligation to buy attached. Secondly, Chelsea will reportedly demand PSG cover 100% of the winger’s wages. Thirdly, Chelsea will insist on some form of guarantee over playing time. (via @TEAMtalk) #CFC

The reactions say everything … #BallonDor

🚨 Chelsea are growing ‘increasingly confident’ of signing Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott in January. England international Scott is the Blues’ top target, valued at £100m.
