To put it bluntly, things are a bit of a mess at Stamford Bridge right now, and so we decided, with Frank Lampard’s appointment as manager now a given, to look at the five biggest challenges facing him this summer, and how to fix them.
Jack Collins (@jjwc), Sam Tighe (@brsamtighe) and Dean Jones (@deanjonesbr) were joined by Clayton Beerman of the Chelsea FanCast to shed some light on Lampard, Jody Morris, the loans, the transfer ban, and how to try and replace the gaping hole left by the departing Eden Hazard.
In this week’s Hot Takes, we take a look at how Manchester United’s signings so far have been somewhat underwhelming, why Dani Olmo’s performance at the U21 European Championships should have him on the radar of some of Europe’s top clubs and examine Roma’s transfer window-taking a deep dive on the Giallorossi’s new manager, players and style, and thinking about what they should do next.
Roulette finds the squad picking footballing partners for high-level murder investigations and discussing the best bits of supporting their respective football clubs; before Sam rounds things off by ranking the best vegan foods and comparing them, to come full circle, to current Chelsea players. Oh, and the gang announce their upcoming US Tour.
