Chelsea could have a new, fresh look with Mauricio Pochettino in charge of the team.


With Mauricio Pochettino in control of the team, Chelsea might have a new, youthful appearance.

The Argentine manager is nearing the top position at Stamford Bridge, where he'll have the difficult challenge of making the woeful Blues real Premier League title contenders.

It won't be simple for him to accomplish this, though, because he will be collaborating with a sizable group of athletes who all feel entitled to a spot on the first team.

Pochettino's track record suggests that Chelsea supporters may see a lot more of their local talents in the future.

Pochettino takes delight in selecting a team at Tottenham that was primarily made up of English players.

Kepa Arrizabalaga has been Chelsea’s number one keeper so far this season and given his performances, he could be handed a fresh chance to impress under Pochettino.

At centre-back, Thiago Silva is a crucial figure in Chelsea’s defensive plans, while Benoit Badiashile is someone who is only going to get better at the age of 22.

Pochettino puts huge emphasis on his full-backs getting forward and so it will be music to his ears that he will inherit a squad with Reece James and Ben Chilwell in their ranks – two of the best in the business.

Chelsea boast lots of experience in central midfield, but as someone who prefers to work with young players, it’s Conor Gallagher and Enzo Fernandez who could be trusted as the future of Chelsea.

Fernandez is a World Cup winner and someone whom the club will be keen to build the team around, while Gallagher is an academy graduate who plays with his heart week in, week out – something that supporters love to see.

It’s a similar story with Mason Mount, however uncertainty over his future at the club could see Pochettino planning for life without him.

Inter have made the asking price clear for wingback Denzel Dumfries during the summer transfer window clear, with incoming Chelsea coach eyeing up a move for the Dutch World Cup star.

This according to Italian news outlet Repubblica.it, who report that the 27-year-old is a major target for the Argentine who is expected to take over at Stamford Bridge, and that the Nerazzurri would expect a fee of at least €40 million for his signature. Dumfries’s future at Inter has looked uncertain for some time now, with the 26-year-old former PSV man having been strongly linked as a possible sale during the summer transfer window should the Nerazzurri need to bring in cash from the market. The likes of Chelsea and Manchester United have been reported to be interested, whilst Barcelona have reportedly also enquired about the Dutchman for the summer transfer window. However, in March Gianluca Di Marzio reported that Dumfries is no longer a major target for Chelsea as he had been in the past. The situation at Stamford Bridge has been in flux, however, with Graham Potter removed as head coach just a few months after taking over, replaced with Frank Lampard on an interim basis.

Journalist Simon Phillips has suggested that Chelsea fans are losing their patience with £250k-a-week star.

According to journalist Simon Phillips, Chelsea supporters are "losing their patience" with Joao Felix, according to GIVEMESPORT. When he first joined the team, the 23-year-old appeared to be an exciting signing, but he is having trouble scoring goals. Joao Felix: Chelsea news Felix, who reportedly makes £250,000 per week at Chelsea, transferred there on loan from Atletico Madrid of Spain during the January transfer window. It's been a difficult period for the Portuguese international, with the Blues not playing a system which suits the role he's predominantly played in his career. As per Transfermarkt, Felix has mostly played as a second striker during his time at Benfica and Atletico, but he's mainly been used off the left-hand side at Chelsea. Despite his difficult start to life at Stamford Bridge, it appears that both Felix and Chelsea want to continue together beyond this season. Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano recently confirmed this news but has st...

The newspaper claims Blues’ officials will travel to Italy next week to discuss the future of Lukaku, who is due to return to Chelsea in the summer when his loan deal expires at the end of the season.  The Belgium striker moved to Inter on a season-long loan deal from Chelsea last summer and has impressed at the San Siro Stadium, scoring nine goals and registering three assists in 26 appearances across all competitions.  The West Londoners are planning a summer clear-out in order to meet the Financial Fair Play requirements after spending £323m in the winter transfer window on eight new players as well as splashing out close to £300m last summer. However, bringing in a shot-stopper could be on the cards as they look to bolster their squad for next season.
