Chelsea want to sign West Ham United winger Jarrod Bowen this summer as they look to bolster their attack, according to Simon Phillips. Writing on his Substack page (25 April), the reliable journalist reports that the west London club are eyeing four different wingers and want to sell at least two of their current players to make space for them. One of those options to sign is Hammers star Bowen, but a deal is currently seen as “unlikely” due to the England international signing a new contract until 2030 earlier this season. West Ham United to sell Jarrod Bowen? David…

Chelsea have been handed a boost ahead of their Premier League trip to Aston Villa on Saturday evening. Star forward Cole Palmer missed the 5-0 drubbing at Arsenal on Monday night through illness in an absence keenly felt by his teammates. Only hours after manager Mauricio Pochettino urged his team to show they were not solely reliant on the England international, the Blues crumbled to an embarrassing defeat at the Emirates Stadium. Palmer, however, was spotted in training on Thursday ahead of the game at Villa Park on Saturday night. The 21-year-old has scored 26 goals while registering a further…

Our writer Simon Phillips’ Substack has a couple of really nice juicy exclusives that have just dropped on this Thursday afternoon to keep us all interested. One that jumps out at us is his report which cites two sources in informing him that the club have ended up their “U25 rule” which was dictating so much of our transfer policy. The Blues have the youngest squad in the league, but Phillips expects this to be “balanced out” in the summer. One of his sources actually reports that the U25 rule was only for the initial wave of signings, and actually…

Cole Palmer returned to Cobham on Thursday after his absence in the midweek capitulation to Arsenal underlined how vital he is to Chelsea. The 21-year-old trained with team-mates after overcoming an illness which sidelined him, with a trip to Aston Villa to follow on Saturday as the Blues look to kickstart a late push for a European place. Manager Mauricio Pochettino had urged his players to show they are not ‘Cole Palmer Football Club’ ahead of facing Arsenal but that backfired as they were beaten 5-0. Palmer has been Chelsea’s main source of goals this season, scoring 20 in the…

Having experienced what it’s like to play in Spain and in England, the winger has now picked one current City player he feels is better than another player who has played for two big clubs in the Premier League and La Liga.

Gary Lineker says Manchester City have a player who could end up being an inductee into the Premier League Hall of Fame one day. In fairness, City have plenty of players who perhaps deserve to be bestowed with such an honour by the time they retire. One of them is Kyle Walker, who Gary Neville believes is the best right-back in Premier League history. The Manchester United legend’s say in the matter particularly means the most, as some like Micah Richards, feel he is the greatest right-back to have ever graced the English top-flight. However, if a player is in…

One of Manchester City’s most influential players is set to sign a new contract ‘in the not-too-distant future’, with the club extremely pleased with what he is doing right now. A string of players have enjoyed terrific seasons once again at the Etihad Stadium. Phil Foden has perhaps been the star of the show with his incredible 32 goal contributions from midfielder. But it has also been another stellar campaign for Rodri, who is City’s most important player in the eyes of many fans. The club have lost four games this season and Rodri was not available for any of…

Manchester City are heading towards an awkward situation with Girona in the summer, with Champions League rules potentially causing problems. That’s according to Diari di Girona, who say the two clubs need to work something out to avoid complications with the current rules about multi-club ownership. The newspaper explains that Manchester City and Girona ‘will have to find a formula’ that does not violate article five of UEFA’s current rules in terms of club ownership. They’ve accessed UEFA’s current rules that stipulate Girona need to meet a series of criteria to qualify for the competition and the major one is…

Mauricio Pochettino took more criticism after Chelsea’s 5-0 loss at Arsenal on Tuesday and it has seen exit rumours surface. Chelsea suffered yet another loss in the Premier League on Tuesday evening, in what was their biggest defeat of the campaign against London rivals Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium – but whilst it has seen exit calls for Mauricio Pochettino after a slow start to the campaign, pundit Riath Al-Samarrai has labelled that notion “insane”, with the Argentine having only seen a year at the helm. The thrashing saw Chelsea fail to win for the 21st time this season from…

Simon Jordan was told to ‘f*** off’ by Chelsea when he tried to poach John Terry for Crystal Palace. The talkSPORT host purchased his beloved Eagles in 2000 and was keen to snap up the Blues legend as one of his first signings. Terry at the time had only played 16 times for the west London outfit across two seasons, and had spent part of the 1999/2000 campaign on loan at Nottingham Forest. He had featured in just six matches in the now-Championship division with the Reds, but that was enough to convince Jordan that the then-19-year-old was good enough.…
