Interesting name but I'd go for the top tier - Dembele, Raphinha - rather than take on another project

Nice - mid-season rest on the sofa for Jorgi

Isn't it because that was PSG's own fault more than Real's brilliance? Real were outplayed in 3/4 halves of that PSG tie and PSG weirdly imploded in the last half - didn't look to manage the game, didn't take off their aged forwards who were no longer pressing.

Real Madrid will have Benzema back for the quarters?

There is a steep release clause with Tammy. Its 80 m euros according to one report

Chelsea Palace City Liverpool/Nottingham Forest

Southampton equaliser. Hope there's an upset here

Arsenal leading. They are somehow keeping up

Nizaar Kinsella is the most improved Chelsea beat reporter over the years

Not for the first time too

What a touch from Havertz. Great choice from Tuchel to take Werner off even though Kai was on a yellow !

Incompetent ref, yes. Not biased against Chelsea.

That's a clear pen. Hope the ref conspiracy theorists can pipe down now

that's a pen
