Stamford Chidge and Jonathan Kydd are joined by Dean Mears to look back at Chelsea’s defeat of Lille and ahead to Saturday’s FA Cup 1/4 final against Middlesbrough.
In part one we look back at Chelsea’s 2-1 win against Lille. Was Tuchel’s team selection over cautious or sensible? Jorginho conceding a penalty, a great goal from Pulisic and a great time to score and Mason Mount made the difference supplying a great Azpi goal. And Thomas Tuchel post-match antics – heart-warming and he always gets it right.
In part two we discuss the latest on Chelsea being sold. The rediculous situation with no tickets for Boro and no Champions’ League tickets. Who are the bidders to date – Boehly; Ricketts; Johnson; Candy/Vialli; Broughton/Coe; Saudi Media and why should we be worried about sports franchises and investment funds buying the club. Plus we report on what the Chelsea Supporters’ Trust have been up to this week with an open letter to bidders; a statement on Chelsea’s Boro statement; pressure on the Govt re. ticket sales; lobbying the shadow DCMS spokesperson and Chelsea MP Greg Hands. All to keep up the message where the key aims remain the same.
In part three we preview the Middlesbrough v Chelsea FA Cup 1/4 final. What’s our team selection? We discuss Chelsea’s history with Boro and Boro’s form. We wrap up by discussing how do we see it going including our predictions.
