Exclusive! Chelsea have three Premier League midfielders on the radar – and they’re keen to sign two!
Unfortunately, as in life, greed has completely taken over in football these days and players are forced to play as much as possible to ensure they play in all available games, leaving the big owners, clubs and ultimately the players more and more money. They all get paid well.
Of course, Chelsea played in the Club World Cup in the summer, which didn’t really help the team with their fatigue as they didn’t get a proper break in the summer like many other clubs.
At the end of the day, they are humans, not robots. They really need a break.

Maresca talks about Chelsea’s away form
Enzo Maresca talks about Chelsea’s match against Bournemouth.
Ahead of Chelsea’s next Champions League game tonight, Maresca said:
“In terms of away games, in the Premier League we gain more points away than at home. In the Champions League, as you said, we played two games where we drew and lost, but in the end I think there is always a balance at the end of the season.
“As far as away games go, I’m not saying we’re used to it because it’s hard to get used to it, but not just away games because there’s no time between one game and the other. We played two days ago and we played two days ago but we’re trying to adapt.”
