LU PLONKER
DAVID LUIZ has been at fault for 64 per cent of goals conceded by Chelsea this season – that's seven of the 11 strikes.

ROMAN'S EMPIRE
CHELSEA owner may have not visited Stamford Bridge in a little while, but the Russian billionaire has no shortage of properties to visit in the meantime.

HE KANTE SHINE UNDER SARRI
JAMIE CARRAGHER claims N’Golo Kante is a ‘very average player’ when forced to play out of position by Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri.

ISRAELI BIG

WORTH A TON
CHELSEA have been linked with a move for Italian starlet Sandro Tonali – but he is already being hailed as the 'next Andrea Pirlo'.
The Bresica midfielder has already earned an international call-up despite not even playing a top-flight match.
