Timo Werner scored after just 4 minutes for the Blues, but Hakim Ziyech was forced to injure his knee; in an update, Frank Lampard didn’t think it was ‘that bad’.
Get all the gossip and updates on Stamford Bridge transfers.
AIR CONDITIONING
Conor Gallagher is going to get a new contract with Chelsea.
The midfielder was inspired by separate loans at Charlton and Swansea last season.
Now he’s in West Brom, the new guys in the Premier League.
And the Birmingham Mail says he will first sign his contract with Chelsea before joining the Baggies.
TROPHIES AND CHILDREN
Frank Lampard is right why he spent £ 50 million on Leicester City and England left-back Ben Chilwell.
The coach explained: “With Ben Chilwell he is a player I know very well, lately he has been practically the left-back of England’s first team.
“Great qualities in the way he participates, he is athletic, his physique, his way of playing and the quality of his left foot.
“So for us, in terms of how he can help on the left side, on offense and defense, which of course is first and foremost, I am extremely happy to ride with him, so I think he is a wonderful addition.
DO NOT DO
Antonio Conte to attack former Chelsea by Olivier Giroud.
Tuttosport ensures that the Frenchman can simply go to Inter Milan to update Lautaro Martínez.
Timo Werner will become Chelsea’s great player this season and Giroud may be tempted by the offer of normal football.
TRY
It seems that Kai Havertz in Chelsea is over.
If Frank Lampard can get a top-notch goalie, did the Blues win this play window?

BUY EXCHANGE
Samuel Umtiti allegedly showed up to Lyon in exchange for Memphis Depay.
Tancredi Palmeri claims Ronald Koeman is keen on bringing his former Netherlands winger to the Nou Camp this summer.
And that means that Umtiti, who has been connected with Man Utd, Chelsea and Arsenal this summer, can return to his old betting box in Lyon.
LOOK AND WERN
In case you missed it, here’s Timo Werner’s first purpose for Chelsea.
RB Leipzig’s 47 million-pound summer signing took less than 4 minutes to exit the goal in Saturday’s 1-1 friendly draw in Brighton.
And after looting 34 targets last season, it will take a brave user to bet against Werner hitting numbers at Stamford Bridge.

MEN GO BLUE
Chlesea is signing Ajax star Amourricho van Axel Dongen.
The Telegraph claims Chelsea are Man Utd and City in the running for the 15-year winger.
The Dutchman has represented his country 3 times in the U16s, scoring once.
And he has already made his debut for Ajax U-18, 3 years above his age group.
However, Van Axel Dongen has been more of an under-17 regular, scoring seven goals in games from the left wing.
The wide player has been the captain of the progression side.
ROM FOR MORE
Everton is a play by Manchester United goalkeeper Sergio Romero.
The Mirror claims that Jordan Pickford could be fired by the Argentine, who will be the third selected at Old Trafford next season after Dean Henderson returns from Sheffield United.
Romero has been associated with Chelsea.
FANTASTIC
Frank Lampard felt it was smart to have a following in the stadium on Saturday.
He said: “It has had an impact.
“We hope to get to this level as soon as possible, we have to be in front of our own fans and for the Chelsea fans at the Bridge.”
“But of course it has to be first, but it was a smart test.”
SILVA LINING
Frank Lampard gave his to new kid Thiago Silva.
He said: “With Thiago Silva, we look at a player I know very well, as we all do.
“It brings us a lot of experience, plays at an incredibly higher level, as we saw in the Champions League final and the matches to the top.”
“So I hope you come and bring this, that you bring your experience, your leadership and your qualities.
“This is going to be very good for us.”
ARTIST AGAINST
Conor Gallagher is most likely available for another loan era for the 2020/21 season.
The 20-year-old has spent this season in the league with Charlton Athletic and Swansea City.
He has created five goals in 10 games for the Swans.
West Brom is interested in him and Birmingham Live says a possible deal can be anything they go over this summer.
DUTCH COURAGE
Chelsea are in pole position to point to Ajax star Amourricho van Axel Dongen, according to reports.
The 15-year-old has already passed through Manchester United and City.
According to The Telegraph, the Blues are eager to show signs of life this summer.
Van Axel Dongen has earned rave reviews for Ajax’s Under-18 squad this season.
I CAN’T HAKER
Frank Lampard is hopeful that Hakim Ziyech’s injury is “not too bad” after he was hauled off against Brighton.
He said: “They gave him a little kick in the knee, a little twist that we will have evaluated.”
“I hope it’s not so bad.”
After appearing with one knee as he twisted awkwardly from the sideline, he lied out of the field.
FANTASTIC
Frank Lampard felt it was smart to have enthusiasts at the stadium on Saturday.
He said: “It has had an impact.
“We hope to reach this level as soon as possible, we need to be in front of our own enthusiasts and for Chelsea enthusiasts at the Bridge.”
“But, of course, it has to be in the first place, but it was a smart test.”
BLUES CRUISE
This is what the start of the season looks like for Frank Lampard’s team …
‘DARK HORSES’
Danny Murphy has asked Arsenal to challenge Chelsea and United for the sensible 4 next season as long as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang sticks and the signings go smoothly.
Writing for the Mail, he said: “If they can raise a few more signings, I think Arsenal can be a dark horse for the four most sensitive.
“As it is, they would cause disorder to the groups but, no matter how much they have run, sometimes they are still vulnerable.
“Willian is a wonderful signing, with his delight and his winning mentality. Lille center back Gabriel Magalhaes is almost on the line.
“If they get the loan of Dani Ceballos, their most productive player at the end of last season, and point to Thomas Partey of Atlético de Madrid, who would give them tenacity and physicality in the midfield, I think ‘they have a squad to challenge Chelsea and Manchester United for the Champions League places.
“On the other hand, none of this will do much unless Aubameyang puts pen to paper.”
Child
The boss has why he signed Ben Chilwell for Chelsea.
Frank Lampard said: “With Ben Chilwell he is a player I know very well, lately he has been the left-back of England’s first team.
“Great qualities in the way he participates, he is athletic, his physique, his playing and the quality of his left foot.
“So for us, in terms of how he can help on the left side, on offense and defense, which of course is first and foremost, I am extremely happy to ride with him, so I think he is a wonderful addition.
TALK TO FRANK
Frank Lampard congratulated new boys Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech after the win over Brighton.
Speaking on the Chelsea club’s website, he said: “I think Timo was cheerful and brilliant.
“He achieved his purpose very early in the game, he showed qualities that I know very well, so I am very excited to have him on the team.
“I think his painting speed and everything in him is a wonderful start for him and Hakim Ziyech.”
BEING FRANK
Frank Lampard significantly wants his Chelsea look this season to avoid being fired, Tony Cascarino has said.
Speaking on talkSport, the former Blues player said: “Frank will be fully aware that getting this investment there is another challenge now.
“He will know that the wait will only be to qualify for the Champions League.
“It’s the wait last summer, and if they were successful with a motion embargo, it’s an advantage.”
Before adding: “It puts more pressure and Frank will know it, but if he meets his expectations and his goals, he will be Chelsea’s manager next year.”
ENOUGH HUD?
Tammy Abraham trolled Callum Hudson-Odoi for his “help” Brighton.
After the ball crashed into the box, the forward incorrectly timed his head and the ball smashed him against the look of the face.
He fell in the wake of Werner, who spent his effort in front of Mat Ryan.
After the game, Abraham left a cheeky comment on his Instagram post.
WAIT AND ZIY
Frank Lampard has posted a message about Hakim Ziyech’s injury, following the club’s 1-1 draw at Brighton at Amex.
Chelsea wrote that: “After the game, Lampard called it a small twist on the knee that will have to be evaluated.”
Chelsea will face Brighton in the same venue on Monday 14 September when their Premier League crusade begins and Lampard hopes the Moroccan is worthy of that.
AUBA AND IN
Mikel Arteta has revealed that he believes Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang “convinced him to stay” with Arsenal.
Then he added: “My task is to check to convince you that you are in the right position at the right time,” Arteta told BBC Radio Five Live.
“I think they gave us that and then we have to do the documents and it takes a little time.”
GOOD MORNING CHELSEA FANS
Blues fans have been drooling over the prospect of Timo Werner hitting on purpose next season.
The £ 48 million signing took less than 4 minutes to score in his debut in Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Brighton.
New kid Hakim Ziyech also showed his quality by betting a very good pass to identify the goal.
But it ended on a sour note when the midfielder limped with a knee injury in the middle of the moment.
Chelsea’s doctor didn’t take any chances as physiotherapists were helping Ziyech when he left the Amex field.
Lampard later told Chelsea that Ziyech suffered “a slight twist to his knee that will want to be evaluated.”
Meanwhile, Chelsea can still make 3 more transfers this summer despite their huge spending.
West Ham midfielder Declan Rice remains a key target for Frank Lampard with Kai Havertz.
And the boss is still a new goalkeeper with Andre Onana as an option.
But newcomers will likely mean departures too and Tammy Abraham may be euthanized with Aston Villa interested.
GIAN-BLEU-IGI
Chelsea are seeking a resolution from AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma to update Kepa Arrizabalaga’s failure, according to reports.
Frank Lampard is desperate to upgrade the goalkeeper of 71.6 million pounds after a terrible 2019-20.
And he reports that the Blues are set to continue their sensational £ 45 million spend on the Italian after contacting agent Mino Raiola.
Chelsea has already seen Dean Henderson, Andre Onana, Jan Oblak and Edouard Mendy.
Henderson signed a new five-year contract with Manchester United, while the Onana and Oblak deals were unsuccessful.
TAM TO MOVE IN?
Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham is wanted by Aston Villa as he faces a big fight for his long career in west London.
The Blues signed Timo Werner after scoring seasons in the Bundesliga with RB Leipzig.
And Frank Lampard will reportedly bring the exciting German Kai Havertz from Bayer Leverkusen for £90 million.
Having also signed Hakim Ziyech from Ajax, Lampard could go with a new dynamic for his frontline next season.
And Olivier Giroud signed a new contract with the club at the end of last season and ended Abraham’s favorite campaign.
