Hmmm. Wonder if Tuchel will try to squeeze those lads in on Wednesday, even though it's probably unlikely. 

It's a shortened summer break, so I'd be surprised if the players haven't at least got a reasonable level of base fitness to work from. The only two which might need a bit more work is James and Chilwell as they didn't feature much in the Euros so their match fitness will be in a worse position, but I don't think they'll all be a million miles away from being ready for the start of the season.

Also to note given the sheer numbers Tuchel has currently, I'm sure he can operate a number of competitive in-house games to get players up and running beyond the Spurs game.

They still did not win a game in pre season. Today against Leicester and Leeds in 3 days as preparation for us.

Seems like there'll be one this weekend...

Game against Ryan Reynolds team Vrexham added. July 19th North Carolina.

Poch starts work in 5 days. Training with players in a week. It is important to get our targets before trip to USA so players can have time together on the pitch. 2 weeks in Cobham will be fitness and they will have that in their current teams anyway so ideally we have 3 weeks to bring players and trim the squad.

Really looking forward to preseason tbh. Want to see some Pochball and how the side might look going into the season.

The likes of Mudryk have got to hit the ground running- if he starts the season, or even pre-season missing chances and the ball pinging around his feet the demise will be quick and he will disappear into his shell.

I honestly think he’s gonna struggle. He was a decent enough up and coming player but his price tag is absolutely ridiculous. He was maybe a £35m signing at most. I don’t think we will ever see a return on the £80m or so his fee wis amount to, I really don’t. Looks like he is lost when he puts on a Chelsea top.

most of the January hirings were a disgrace.

not only what was bought, but what was spent

i only liked enzo and badiashile.

we spent more than 100 million on mudryk and madueke 

where we could have spent that money...
