Stamford Bridge Spotlight

#Chelsea were NOT one of the clubs to have raised opposition to Manchester City proposing changes to their fixture schedule in and around the FA Cup final. [via @JacobsBen]

‼️The wide areas have been an issue for Chelsea this campaign, and although Geovany Quenda is joining from Sporting CP, there is a desire to add another attacking player. ~ @TheAthleticFC

Chelsea are interested in signing Gordon, with any potential transfer not believed to be dependent on Chelsea qualifying for the Champions League. Chelsea are keen on the player — as they were in 2022, when they were interested in signing him from Everton. ~ @TheAthletic

🗣️ John Obi Mikel: "We need a manager. We don't need a coach. We've been successful in the past years because we had managers. They will never in million years allow that to happen. So what we're going to get is another yes man. Andoni Iraola is a guy that doesn't want to get involved with who comes in and who goes out. He just wants to get on with what happens on the football pitch, which is coaching. ~ @obionepodcast

‼️Chelsea intend to name Rosenior's successor once this season has ended. ~ @kierangill_DM dailymail.com/sport/football…

By the time we beat forest 3-0 the rest will be scared 😂

A Bola executive editor Fernando Urbano on Quenda to Chelsea move: 🗣️ “Players like Geovany Quenda are becoming rare. He is bold, he takes on defenders, and embraces the one-on-one in a way that is increasingly uncommon. I fear that the decision to move to Chelsea could be a very bad choice. For him and, consequently, for the national team.”

🗣️ Wayne Rooney: "I've been there as a player when a manager's been sacked and I'd felt sad, like I'm part of the problem and part of why they've been sacked. But I was watching the Chelsea players and I didn't seem to see that in them – there seemed to be a relief. I guess it happens, but that's where as a player you need to look at yourself as well." ~ @BBCSport

Joao Pedro with his girlfriend 💙
