Maurizio Sarri has been named as the new manager
I think jorginho could be a good signing.
The Jorginho signing's been officially announced. Our first signing of the summer and now we need to push on because incredibly we have much to sort out and less than 4 weeks until the transfer window closes.
It's good that the managerial saga is finally over, but I don't know how Sarri can get his methods and style over to the players in such a short space of time. It should all have been sorted out a long time ago.
Gianfranco Zola is making a return to Chelsea. He's going to be the assistant to Maurizio Sarri
Joe Cole, a star player for Chelsea between 2003 and 2010, has announced the end of his playing career at the age of 37.
Chelsea legend Didier Drogba, with us 2004/12 and again 2014/15, a total of 9 seasons, has announced the end of his playing career at the age of 40.
Chelsea have made a signing in the January transfer window and it came as early as New Year's Day. Christian Pulisic has been signed from Borussia Dortmund, but will be loaned back to the German club until the end of the season. At 64m Euro it's the highest ever transfer fee for a US footballer.
Welcome to Gonzalo Higuain who has joined on loan for the remainder of the season. I don't have much confidence in our transfer dealings these days, but let's hope it works out. Meanwhile, Sarri says that Morata asked to leave a month ago and that's one of the reasons he wanted to get Higuain in.
Maurizio Sarri to start next season as Chelsea manager.
Yes - 7/4
No - 8/11
(Odds from William Hill)
Sarri has to go. I've tried to back him until now, but Monday was the turning point.
It's not often I say this about bookmakers, but the 8/11 bet seems generous to me.
