Graeme Souness has warned Chelsea’s owners their transfer strategy is ‘creating a monster’ with the decision to replace Raheem Sterling with Jadon Sancho another example of their questionable approach. Having publicly deemed Sterling surplus to requirements, Arsenal pounced on transfer deadline day to sign the experienced England international on loan until the end of the season. Subsequent reports claim the Gunners are paying less than a third of the 29-year-old’s salary, which means the Blues are effectively paying around £10million to let Sterling represent one of their main rivals until June. Souness fears that decision represents a grave error, with Enzo Maresca’s chances of succeeding only further undermined by the signing of Jadon Sancho who has struggled to adapt to the Premier League since his move to Manchester United three years ago. #footballfanarena #ffa #manchesterunited #liverpool #arsenal #mikelarteta #premierleague #enzomaresca #souness #football

Ben Chilwell is still ‘more than happy’ to play for Chelsea despite being banished from the first-team by Enzo Maresca. The left-back was one of over a dozen players, known as the ‘bomb-squad’, exiled by the new manager over the summer and told they had no future at the club. But while the likes of Raheem Sterling, Conor Gallagher and Romelu Lukaku were able to secure a transfer away, Chilwell is still at Stamford Bridge. There was never any serious interest in the England international thanks to his high wages, said to be £ 200,000 a week, and his injury history. #footballfanarena #ffa #chelsea #enzomaresca #romelulukaku #transferwindow #benchilwell #football

Pep Guardiola insists he ‘likes’ the playing style Enzo Maresca is trying to implement at Chelsea following their 4-2 friendly defeat to Manchester City in Ohio on Saturday evening. Erling Haaland looked in fine form as he opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the fourth minute after the Norwegian striker was fouled by Levi Colwill. Chelsea were then two behind a minute later when Reece James put Moises Caicedo under pressure and the Ecuador international’s wayward pass was intercepted by Haaland, who finished neatly past Robert Sanchez. Maresca’s side were made to pay for another loose pass in the 56th minute when Raheem Sterling misplaced ball led to a City attack which Oscar Bobb finished off with a fine reverse strike. #footballfanarena #ffa #chelsea #erlinghaaland #mancity #pepguardiola #football
