Chelsea are at the moment going by a really powerful spell, and though issues bought a bit higher on the weekend after lastly getting a win on board at dwelling to Crystal Palace, Liverpool are subsequent up for us.
Everyone knows and see the issues, and there isn’t ever simply going to be one factor. Everybody has had a stab and given their six pence value, however I all the time discover it fascinating to take heed to former gamers who’ve really performed the sport, to get perception on that aspect of issues. Particularly gamers who performed for a profitable Chelsea crew.
Frank Leboeuf is a Chelsea legend and a former membership captain, and at the moment he has penned an unique column for Si & Dan Discuss Chelsea, and he covers rather a lot in there and talks in regards to the present points.

One factor he highlights is the shortage of management, which is totally bang on. There’s a actual lack of that on the membership, and it’s one thing that’s been an issue now for fairly a while.
Leboeuf mentioned: “Thiago Silva is unquestionably a pacesetter for me, not essentially by his character however the best way he performs as a technical chief. He exhibits the best way to the children. Cesar Azpilicueta due to his preventing spirit is a pacesetter. In any other case I see no leaders there.
“I believe it’s the time for Mason Mount to indicate his character. He’s a man from the membership, the man who will be listened to by the others as a result of he represents the membership.
“And Reece James, with Reece we really feel it. With Mason, I don’t really feel it but. I wish to see it as a result of he’s implausible participant, everyone knows that.”
He’s proper, we actually want gamers to step as much as the desk and turn into actual leaders. I can also see it in each James and Mount, however we have to begin seeing it now.
One other nice level he makes is that the gamers have simply not been placing within the effort they need to be placing in when representing Chelsea FC, one thing that you possibly can by no means accuse Leboeuf or different gamers in that very same Chelsea crew of doing. They performed with their coronary heart on their sleaves and blue of their blood.
Leboeuf mentioned: “I’ve not been proud of what I’ve been seeing. I see gamers who get their massive time cash and don’t do 20% of what they need to be doing.
“I’m undecided Potter has the gamers that he needs. Everyone knows that we’d like a striker. I like Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, I performed along with his father and I really like him, however I do know that he’s not the man we wanted.”
Once more, he’s completely not incorrect with this evaluation, and it’s good to listen to it from somebody who performed for Chelsea, and performed very properly for Chelsea.
