Morning all!
Chelsea were in League Cup action last night against Liverpool away from home. The second half performance was better, first half was very bland. But there wasn’t much in it between the two teams come the end and it had to be cruelly decided by penalties.
I have my reactions, report, and player ratings here.
Before the game though, I had the usual set of articles out for you all to feast on, including this big sourced transfer article on Chelsea monitoring a certain England international! You can get the full drop on what is going on there in here.
I rounded up Xabi Alonso’s embargoed quotes from the press conference earlier this week, including more on Joao Pedro’s injury and when we can expect to see him back playing for Chelsea. You can peep all that here.
There was also some fresh links between Antonio Rudiger and Chelsea! Rudiger back to The Bridge anyone? Find out the story on that here as well as vote your opinion on whether you want to see him back at the club!
As there was no Live Blog yesterday, I did round up all the general Chelsea news from across the day here. This covers all you need to know.
See you all on the next Live Blog from around 8.45am today on the home page! Drop your comments in this one on the game last night, I’ll be intrigued to hear the reactions as always.
Peace, Si.
