Matt Law's Chelsea briefing Chelsea manager and his players dig deep for charity By Matt Law, Football News Correspondent Frank Lampard and some of his players have been putting their hands in their pockets over the past week to support causes close to their hearts. Lampard and Mason Mount have shown their appreciation for the part Derby County played in their development by pledging support for a bust to be made of Derby legend Reg Harrison. And Chelsea right-back Reece James is trying to help some of the London families hit hardest by the coronavirus pandemic by attempting to raise £100,000 for The Felix Project. James kicked off his fundraising effort by making a £10,000 personal donation to the project, which collects surplus food in London and delivers it, free of charge, direct to local charities and schools serving people in need. James has not only made a financial contribution, but has also shared pictures of himself helping with collections and deliveries of food with the promise that every £10 donated will provide 61 meals. By that reckoning, James himself has donated enough money to provide a staggering 61,000 meals, with his overall goal of £100,000 totalling 610,000 meals. Since setting up his fundraising site and making his personal donation last Thursday, James had, at the time of writing, already raised over £14,000. On social media, the England international said: “All the stuff on the news about kids going hungry is breaking my heart. I’ve set up this page to help raise money for @felixprojectuk so they can get more food to hungry children & people who are struggling.” This week, Lampard donated £2,000 to the project set up by the Rams Heritage Trust, who are trying to raise £8,000 for a permanent remembrance in honour of Harrison, who played for Derby County between 1944 and 1955, and was last year awarded the freedom of the city. Lampard met Harrison — who died in September aged 97 — in February last year, when Harrison, the last surviving member of Derby’s 1946 FA Cup winning team, was presented with the freedom of the city. Derby fans have praised the contribution of Lampard, who managed Derby for one season, taking the club to the play-off final where they lost to Aston Villa, before he returned to Chelsea. The Rams Heritage Trust posted a picture on Twitter of Lampard alongside Harrison with the message: “Wow - humbled by the support we've received for our #RememberingReg campaign from Frank Lampard." "Frank met Reg when he received the Freedom of the City of Derby and obviously had a tremendous effect on him. Once a Ram…” Midfielder Mount, who spent a year on loan at Derby under Lampard, has also supported the cause by donating £250. The Rams Heritage Trust tweeted a message that read: “What a fantastic gesture from @masonmount_10 to contribute to our fund for Reg Harrison, a class act from a class player, remembering the importance of grass-roots football where everybody’s dream starts, not many make it but Mason certainly has ! Thank you Mason, once a Ram…” At the time of writing, the campaign, with the help of Lampard and Mount, was well on the way to achieving its goal, having raised almost £5,000. The bust, which will be sculpted by Andy Edwards, will be displayed beside the entrance to Field Lane Football Club, one of the clubs founded by Harrison in 1982 and close to his family home in Alvaston.

The inside story of how Chelsea sorted out their leaky defence https://theathletic.com/2174785/2020/11/03/chelsea-defence-mendy-silva/ As far as transformations go, surely no team has made a bigger one during the start of this season. Chelsea have gone from a team opposition strikers couldn’t wait to play against to one starting to revel in keeping clean sheets. Nobody is getting carried away at Stamford Bridge. After all, it was just over two weeks ago that Chelsea’s back line were making headlines for all the wrong reasons when costly mistakes caused them to draw 3-3 at home to Southampton. The outcry and scrutiny after that fixture was intense. The statistic showing Chelsea had let in 63 goals in 43 Premier League games under Frank Lampard had taken charge being highlighted and discussed. His tactical acumen and suitability for the job of head coach questioned in some quarters. But Chelsea have swiftly gone from one extreme to another. An impressive four clean sheets in all competitions have followed. In fact, the Southampton contest is the only time they’ve conceded in their last six matches. Granted some will point to the standard of some of their opponents — for example Burnley, who have found the net just three times in the Premier League and sit bottom of the table — as a major factor. Russian club Krasnodar aren’t exactly world-beaters either, in what is their first season in the Champions League group stage. But until recently, Chelsea have found it hard to consistently keep teams at bay no matter who they were. Last season, their longest run of games without conceding was two matches — a feat managed on only three occasions. So, what has changed? The most obvious answer is of course new signings Ben Chilwell, Thiago Silva and Edouard Mendy have started to play at the back on a regular basis. The only time Silva and Mendy have not featured in the last seven fixtures was in that goalfest with Southampton. Nobody has talked about the problematic left-back position since Chilwell, who joined from Leicester City for £50 million, made his Premier League debut for Chelsea in the 4-0 victory over Crystal Palace. Joining from another English club means the 23-year-old has needed no time to adapt to the division. The same can be said of Silva, despite coming in from abroad. The Brazil international, who has spent the previous eight seasons helping Paris Saint-Germain dominate in France, made an instant impact in central defence. Then there is the towering figure of Mendy in goal, but more of that later. It is understood that during this summer’s brief close-season, the coaching staff looked at three key departments in terms of their defensive record during 2019-20 — set plays, transition goals and crosses into the box. For the first category, Lampard has already explained that part of the reason Chelsea had such a weakness was the lack of height in the team. Of the 52 Premier League goals they let in last season, 14 (26.9 per cent) came from set pieces. The summer recruitment has helped address this. Silva is 6ft tall and boasts a great leap. Mendy is 6ft 5in. Then there is attacking midfielder Kai Havertz at 6ft 2in. Chelsea’s record currently stands at two set-piece goals conceded in seven Premier League games (28.6 per cent), but they were scored (against West Bromwich Albion and Southampton) when at least one of that trio were not playing. Lampard’s side aren’t being bullied as much in the air with all three on the pitch. Although there isn’t much time between matches these days, things have inevitably been worked on at the training ground too. There has been a minor tactical change, with Chelsea going half zonal. On the transition side, statistics demonstrate Chelsea had a Premier League-worst eight goals scored against them on the counter-attack last season. In contrast, there have been none yet in 2020-21. The feeling in the camp was that a lot of the issues were caused by individual errors rather than a problem tactically. Admittedly, before Saturday’s 3-0 triumph over Burnley, Lampard primarily set up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with two midfielders in front of the back four to give added protection. However, one agent close to a senior Chelsea player argues that progress has been made because Silva is a far superior centre-back in a one v one situation, as was seen during the goalless draw against Manchester United last month when Marcus Rashford was frustrated on a regular basis. It is believed the aspect that has been worked on most in training is how to better cope with crosses into the box. The club’s research discovered that the amount of crosses allowed into their penalty area last season compared to the rest of the Premier League was low but the percentage of goals being scored from those crosses was very high. The consensus is Silva’s positioning and reading of the game has helped improve this scenario too. Chilwell has done a better job than Marcos Alonso and Emerson Palmieri at defending the left flank with his positional play. It’s an area of the game right-back Reece James is seen as needing to work on but is showing good signs of progress. The presence of 89-cap, long-time Brazil captain Silva in the squad has made a vast difference. One source explains: “Silva has gone straight into Chelsea and given them the benefit of all that experience. He has a real presence. The players talk about the fact he has an aura about him because he has been there and done it. You only have to see how he has rubbed off on Kurt Zouma and the way he is playing. Thiago reads the game so well and when he heads the ball, he really clears the danger. “He communicates in French mostly because he is in the early stages of learning English, but still makes an effort with everyone and is well liked. Despite everything he has achieved in his career, he still wants to win games, win trophies.” In his role as a pundit, former Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole has noticed the size of Silva’s contribution. As someone who used to play alongside the club’s former captain and centre-half John Terry, he knows what a strong leader at the back can do. Cole said: “Thiago has got what all great players have — he brings players around him and makes them better. Some by his personality, some by design. He’s a talker, he jostles and cajoles people into position. There is no panic, there are no flailing arms.” Inevitably though, the newcomer arguably attracting most of the attention is Mendy. This is partly due to the struggles in contrast to predecessor Kepa Arrizabalaga, who became the most expensive goalkeeper in football history when he joined from Athletic Bilbao for £71.6 million in 2018. Kepa’s form and confidence has nosedived this year. So much so that The Athletic learnt the Chelsea defenders had lost trust in him by the end of last season because of the number of mistakes being made. The Spain international’s struggles continued in the early weeks of this season, with high profile errors in the loss to Liverpool and draw with Southampton, a match Mendy missed through injury. As documented here by The Athletic, Chelsea accepted they needed to find a new goalkeeper. Mendy, of Rennes, was championed by technical and performance advisor Petr Cech, Chelsea’s long-time keeper who himself joined them from that French club in 2004. Mendy was always going to be seen in a positive light as far as many fans were concerned, for simply not being Kepa. Yet there is a lot more to the Senegal international’s impact at Stamford Bridge than that. Just look at the figures below, which measure the performances of the three goalkeepers (including back-up Willy Caballero) Lampard has used. This table shows how Mendy has prevented 0.26 goals more than he was expected to per 90 minutes in the Premier League so far. Perhaps more significantly, it highlights how Caballero (-0.62) and Kepa (-0.34) let in more. There is the caveat that Mendy has played just three league games compared with Kepa’s 72. In saying that, Caballero has started only three more times under Lampard in the Premier League and his figures are still much worse in comparison. Noticeably, Kepa has faced an average of 9.03 shots a game, compared with 8.50 for Caballero and 7.67 for Mendy. That suggests the defence was offering the Spaniard less protection than Mendy is benefitting from now. But anyone who witnessed the two saves made from Rashford at Old Trafford saw Mendy make the kind of stops that have been lacking from Kepa and Caballero. It is understood Cech was raving about the 28-year-old’s display afterwards. As the man who recommended the club buy him, along with the head of the goalkeeping department Christophe Lollichon, he has a vested interest in Mendy coming good. But as Cech told French TV’s Telefoot, “I think he’s a goalkeeper who can still improve, with his work, professionalism and desire to be better every day. I’m convinced he’ll improve more, and these aren’t the best performances you’ll see from Edouard Mendy.” Another tribute to Mendy, who joined for an initial £22 million, is that he has made the same great start Cech did when he was in goal for the club: they both began with three clean sheets in the Premier League. Mendy will join an elite group with just three other goalkeepers if he makes it four against Sheffield United (who have just three goals in their first seven games) on Saturday and Cech’s name isn’t among them. Multiple sources have told The Athletic what a positive addition Mendy has been. While he conducted his first press conference as a Chelsea player in French, it is understood he speaks and writes English fluently. When it comes to games, he is not afraid to voice an opinion despite being a new arrival. As one insider says: “He’s looking like the boss. He’s shouting at everyone. He’s taken over, even telling the captain to do his job. That’s football, that’s confidence. He loves what he’s doing and talking to the players, making saves comes naturally for him.” But there is no danger of his early form going to his head. As the insider continues: “Edouard feels he is just doing his job. He is not getting carried away. After games, he watches clips when he goes home. He talks with people around him about what is good and bad. He is very calm. Even when he is being told the good things, he is the one who will raise the bad things, stuff he could have done better.” Significantly, he is happy off the pitch, which has helped him settle quickly. Mendy’s wife and two sons didn’t travel with him when the transfer was first completed in September as they had to sort out their living arrangements in France while he shopped for a new house in this country. The family were reunited a few weeks ago. They live near the club’s training ground in Cobham, Surrey and the boys have been placed in a new school. The Athletic has also learned it had been his dream to join a London club for a while. He had visited the capital on a number of occasions and fell in love with the city. His sister has lived in the English capital for 13 years. Unlike the unfortunate Kepa, Mendy couldn’t be happier and it is showing. Belief is flooding through the Chelsea team because of the way he dominates the area and as one source insists “he comes for every cross, but most importantly, he gets it”. In summary, a combination of factors have led to these better results defensively. And with the same players playing consistently together and shutting teams out, trust and conviction is on the rise. Chelsea’s new fortitude will obviously be put to the test in the coming weeks and months. It would be premature to say they have resolved all their defensive issues, because football has a nasty habit of taking a turn for the worst or exposing other flaws just when you think you’re on the up. But should Chelsea continue on this kind of streak while making the most of all the attacking talent within their ranks, their rivals will have cause for concern.

What do Southampton do without Danny Ings? https://theathletic.com/2179153/2020/11/04/danny-ings-walcott-obafemi-long-southampton/ There was a sense of relief behind the scenes at Southampton on Sunday night. Danny Ings, who went down under a challenge from Aston Villa’s Trezeguet earlier that day, had been for a scan on his knee and the initial results were positive. This certainly settled the nerves that were present hours before. Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl said after the match that, when Ings went down, he could hear screams of, “my knee, my knee”. For anyone that doesn’t know, the England international has previously ruptured both anterior cruciate ligaments (ACL). Everyone was right to be concerned. The Athletic is led to believe Ings himself was extremely worried in the dressing room after the match but with Southampton confirming on Monday morning that the scan results were “favourable”, it looked as though the 28-year-old had dodged a bullet. Only, that wasn’t the case. A light jogging session at Staplewood on Tuesday led to Ings’ knee becoming swollen, while also causing him a level of discomfort at the same time. Because of this, the left knee was looked at again. This time, though, the news wasn’t so good. There was an issue with his meniscus and it was decided minor surgery was the safest way forward. Because of this, he now faces four to six weeks out of the team. The Athletic understands that, heading into their day off on Tuesday, the striker’s team-mates had thought Ings’ injury was a minor complaint, only to discover the full severity of the problem when Hasenhuttl confirmed that the player would require surgery in a press conference on Wednesday. You cannot overstate just how devastating this is for Ings, Hasenhuttl, Southampton supporters and the dressing room. Everything that Southampton do well is geared around the talismanic striker. Take the relentless pressing, for example — Ings leads it from the front. He will put the team’s success over his own in that sense. It’s hard to picture other successful strikers willing to sap their energy levels this way. What you put into something is said to be what you get out of it, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that his gargantuan efforts are rewarded with goals. Last season saw him score 25 times in 42 appearances. He’s already scored on five occasions in seven Premier League games this campaign. This begs the question of who will fill the almost irreplaceable void vacated to partner Che Adams in Southampton’s attack. Theo Walcott would appear to be the logical choice. He started the games against Chelsea and Aston Villa, and also has experience of playing as a striker for Arsenal. Hasenhuttl has already praised the club’s former academy star’s work against the ball but wants him to improve on it. You have to go back to the 2016-17 season for the last time Walcott managed to score 10 Premier League goals in a single season. In the following three campaigns, he’s totalled 10 top-flight goals. With this in mind, it would appear Adams is going to have to step up and show he can be successful without Ings by his side. The duo have built a brilliant relationship but it’s time for last year’s £15 million signing to lead the charge and continue his streak in front of goal. Adams has netted six times in the last 13 Premier League games. Shane Long and Michael Obafemi could also provide cover for Ings, although that would seem unlikely given their lack of game time. It also looks too early for 21-year-old Dan N’Lundulu to step into the shoes of Southampton’s most important player. Everyone should rightly be concerned about what Southampton look like without Ings but one positive from the situation is that the upcoming international break could not have fallen at a better time. If he’s out for the full six weeks, then two of those will be at a time when Southampton aren’t playing. This could see the England man only miss a handful of matches. With this in mind, it’s better for the surgery to go ahead now as opposed to a busier time of the year. Although his absence will be felt inside the dressing room, where he is a popular figure, others have already started to share some of the goalscoring burden normally carried on Ings’ shoulders. Last season, Ings scored 43.1 per cent of Southampton’s Premier League goals. The current campaign, while still in its infancy, has seen that figure drop to 35.7 per cent. In total, Southampton have scored 14 times this season and it’s clear to see how they are being spread out across the pitch. James Ward-Prowse has three goals, defender Jannik Vestergaard and striker Adams have two, and Moussa Djenepo and Oriol Romeu have one. Losing Ings is a blow but Hasenhuttl isn’t going to allow it to linger for too long. He will accept it and move on, no matter how devastating a setback it could turn out to be. The Austrian isn’t going to change the way he sets his team up, so it’s now down to the players to ensure Ings isn’t missed too much.

Abraham is embracing competition with Werner and taking his chances https://theathletic.com/2179922/2020/11/05/tammy-abraham-contract-werner-lampard-chelsea/ It would be understandable if Tammy Abraham has been thinking lately about what a difference a year makes. Last November, things couldn’t have been going any better. Abraham was starting regularly for Chelsea, had found the net nine times for his boyhood club in the new Premier League season and to cap things off, scored his first goal for England in a 7-0 victory over Montenegro. The striker hasn’t played for his country since. Why? COVID-19, mainly. Firstly, the pandemic caused a 10-month break between England fixtures; secondly, when the national team finally got back into action in September, he was having to self-isolate at home following a holiday in Mykonos; lastly, after being called up in October, he was told to stay away from the squad because it emerged friends and family had organised a surprise 23rd birthday party for him days earlier, but it broke rules set by the government that only six people could gather in one household. The timing of his absences couldn’t have been much worse. Last year, Abraham seemed to be cementing his place as Gareth Southgate’s main back-up to Harry Kane. Now he appears to be a lot further down the pecking order and Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin is the young English striker the country is talking about. Calvert-Lewin is joint top of the Premier League goalscoring charts with Son Heung-min on eight goals and found the net on his England debut against Wales last month. Danny Ings also scored in that 3-0 win, although his remarkable form for Southampton has been halted by a knee injury last weekend that is expected to keep him out for up to six weeks. With the postponed European Championship finals set to take place next June, competition for places in attack is intense. Other English strikers in contention include Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood, Callum Wilson and Patrick Bamford. Should Jamie Vardy decide to end his two-year international retirement, he would also be on manager Southgate’s list. And then you have the threat provided by wide attackers Raheem Sterling and Jadon Sancho to consider. The squad to face the Republic of Ireland, Belgium and Iceland in England’s last fixtures of 2020 over the next two weeks is to be announced this afternoon (Thursday). Whether Abraham is included or not, he needs to be involved as much as possible for Chelsea if he is to firmly reestablish himself in Southgate’s selection before the summer. But the chances to do that are already proving much harder to come by due to the west London club’s summer signing of Timo Werner from RB Leipzig. The Germany international is the man leading the line regularly for Chelsea now. The impact that has had on Abraham’s minutes on the pitch is notable. During Chelsea’s first 12 games in 2019-20, the England international spent 802 minutes on the pitch. Over the same amount of fixtures so far in this campaign, the total has almost halved to 448 minutes. Still, at least it is better than how last season finished, when Olivier Giroud was preferred to him in the starting XI on a regular basis. The 2018 World Cup winner has now been relegated to third-choice again, as his tally of 151 minutes this season (94 of them in the Carabao Cup) demonstrates. The good news is Abraham has responded positively to the situation and reversal of fortune. It didn’t look that way a few months ago. Sources spoke to The Athletic about him being a frustrated figure behind the scenes. His contract situation was a major factor. When Abraham agreed a five-year deal in 2017 worth £50,000-a-week, a clause was included that would automatically trigger an option to extend should he score 15 Premier League goals in a season for Chelsea. He registered goal number 15 for 2019-20 against Liverpool in July, so any discussions over a new deal were not necessary as far as the club were concerned. At the time it was suggested his terms had been extended by 12 months, but one insider claims the clause stipulated double that, meaning it won’t expire until 2024. Now put yourself in Abraham’s shoes. In your first Premier League campaign as a senior player at Chelsea — over the previous three years he was loaned out to Bristol City, Swansea and Aston Villa respectively — you’ve comfortably got into double figures and helped the club qualify for the Champions League. While your wages remain the same, the club spends a fortune on new signings and gives them very high wages. For example, Werner is on more than three times as much as Abraham. Inevitably there will be people reading this arguing Werner is at a different level as a player and is being paid accordingly. But it’d be human nature if Abraham felt a little aggrieved that the wage gap is so large. Besides, another contract was agreed with his fellow academy graduate Callum Hudson-Odoi, who was given terms with a base figure of £120,000-a-week (plus bonuses) last year and his contribution has been minor in comparison to Abraham’s. When Chelsea bought Werner in June, Frank Lampard didn’t seek Abraham out to offer any assurances. The head coach wanted to see how the youngster would react to the increased competition. There was a flash of temper at the start of last month when Abraham argued about taking a penalty against Crystal Palace with Jorginho, the designated taker. If there was any concern on Lampard’s part about Abraham’s frustration or attitude though, it has been silenced. Despite the significant drop in game time, the 23-year-old is making a difference every time he is on the pitch. In Chelsea’s 3-0 Champions League victory over Rennes last night, where he actually played through the middle with Werner to his left, Abraham took his tally for the season to three goals and five assists. That’s a goal involvement every 56 minutes. If you include the two penalties he’s won for his team (against Palace and Rennes), it comes down to just under 45 minutes. His display against the French visitors at Stamford Bridge wasn’t great overall but he kept working and didn’t give up. A trademark run to the near post was rewarded when Reece James fired in a fine cross for him to convert. Abraham is making his limited opportunities count. Encouragingly, he is forming an understanding with Werner and also another high profile acquisition in attacking midfielder Kai Havertz. When asked by The Athletic about Abraham’s response to the situation and his form, Lampard couldn’t hide his delight. “I’m very happy,” he said. “I’ve had numerous conversations with him. I’ve a good relationship with him. “The qualities Tammy can bring to the team are never short on me. I know what he can bring when he’s at his best. In his last two games, against Rennes and Burnley, we saw him at his best. “He got his goal (against Rennes) and he deserves it in terms of stretching teams, taking them long, setting off our press, jumping in. He is not happy to just jump five yards but wants to get the team up the pitch as the first man off the ball. Those things are very important for me. Sometimes it’s about the unseen. His goal was the culmination of his performances over the past two matches.” Keep this up and it could still end up being a positive 12 months for club and country.

DEMBA, BAH! The Fiver is acutely aware that we’ve been yammering on a bit too much recently about Manchester United and Ole Gunnar Solskjær and Frank O’Farrell and Herbert Bamlett’s 12 defeats in a row in 1930 and all that. Sorry. But just look! What can you do? Ten players in the attacking third, your £80m central defender at the far post waiting for a ball from a £50m right-back who can’t cross, your left-back on the right-hand corner of Istanbul Basaksehir’s six-yard box, and your last man, who at the best of times moves around the pitch with the speed, power and athletic grace of Withnail, loitering 20 yards inside the opponents’ half. Just look! 'You don't see those goals at this level': Solskjær reflects on defensive disaster Read more Hats off to Ole, though, because nobody ever thought it possible to make Kevin Keegan look like the freak result of an overly ambitious genetic experiment utilising the genes of Karl Rappan, Helenio Herrera and Otto Rehhagel. But he’s managed it. Nobody thought Demba Ba would ever score a funnier, more gut-clenching and trouser-bothering goal than the one involving $tevie Mbe, either, but here we are in the laundrette again. It’s one hell of an achievement. “It is my responsibility,” Ole says, perhaps unwisely drawing attention to himself during a week which has seen Mauricio Pochettino popping up on telly. Former captain Rio Ferdinand was also on the box, telling the tens who regularly tune in to BT Sport that such was the absurdity of the lapse, it should lead to fisticuffs in the dressing room, preferably instigated by the manager. We paraphrase, but only slightly, we’re really not using much artistic licence here. Asked whether United’s abysmal form might cost him the gig, Solskjær declined to comment. “You have to stay strong. I’m employed to do a job by the club and I do it to the best of my ability.” Again, given the circumstances, not the smartest choice of words, and unless his team showcase a coherent strategy against Everton this Saturday, finally, at the 102nd time of asking, he could be out the door. Should the worst happen, he’d become the first United manager to leave without any silverware whatsoever since the aforementioned O’Farrell. The oft-referenced Bamlett didn’t win anything either. Apologies yet again, but what can you do?

hell yes and I do not know pure pettiness by Deschamps it sounds like
