“He will play this weekend for the U23. It has compatibility, but has no support. This will be a short time as he is a compatible guy.
“He made wonderful progress in a short period of time last year. I put Billy in for much of the season because of the way he trained, he might have held him back a little bit sometimes. He performed very well before his injury.
“We have to contextualize the fact that he’s still a young player. We have a lot of festival on the team in this area, but I’m convinced Billy will be a wonderful player for us for a long time. “
“I’m satisfied you’re back in shape.
STORM BRU-ING
Newcastle boss Steve Bruce spoke about Chelsea’s name before his clash on Saturday lunchtime.

“Personally, I think they’ll be there or enough with the adjustments they’ve made. “
AWAKENING ROUD
Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud’s agent has hinted that the French striker would move if he left Stamford Bridge.
French coach Didier Deschamps warned that Giroud would possibly want to move to get more game time after making only six appearances this season and playing only 33 minutes in the Premier League.
Agent Michael Manuello told Foot Mercato: “The ideal [situation] would be for him to look at the culture, to have new horizons.
“Now, some other English club with goals can also make you think because the big difference with the Premier League is that it’s a normal league, which gives other pleasures. “
“So if a very smart Premier League club comes along, yeah, it makes you think.
“But he has an open brain to pass and anything else abroad. “
JOR FALLING
Arsenal attempted to recruit Chelsea Jorginho’s midfielder this summer, it has been revealed.
Athletic reports that gunners have to use staggered payment structures to land two of their top 3 targets.

MOUNT AIN TO CLIMB

Merse believes the 21-year-old midfielder might not be part of Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions team: he lost his place in Frank Lampard’s starting lineup.
He told the Daily Star: “If you don’t play regularly for your club, you deserve not to be part of the England national team. That’s how it’s been and that’s how it deserves to be now. “
“You have to play 3 in the back because we’re smart enough on the defensive otherwise, and that takes away one of your strikers.
“Southgate also likes Mount very much, but it’s also safe to move on to the Euros. If you lose your job at Chelsea, you’re guaranteed to get it back.
“And that can be simple with the amount of skill they have this season. So, they still have everything to do.
IT WILL SOON BE
Willian, a former Chelsea star, “seems lost” at Arsenal and does not approach his Blues form, according to Paul Merson.
The 32-year-old Brazilian winger arrived at the Emirates before this season on a three-year contract that Chelsea’s senior management have refused to offer him.
Merse told Sky Sports: “Willian was amazing at Chelsea last year.

“He went to Arsenal and lost. They have to make him play.
IS RICE GOOD?

Writing at the Evening Standard, Moyes said: “It’s wonderful to see Declan Rice score his first goal for England against Iceland on Wednesday.
“You may see from his reaction how much it meant to him and it was another memorable step in his career so far, since he left the academy here in West Ham.
“Adding targets to your game is all Declan is capable of doing, with his air force and shooting ability, and it’s watching him expand so well. “
A PRORRATA
Chelsea’s former loser, Alvaro Morata, could increase his loan at Juventus next season.
It is possible that the Vieja decides to stay with him on a transitional basis for 12 more months than to pay the 40 million pounds that Atletico Madrid asks for.
The Spanish striker already has six goals in 8 games this season, juve’s finances have been shaken by the coronavirus pandemic.

Former Chelsea star Jack Cork may be on the move this summer when his burnley contract expires.
Newcastle, Bright and Sheffield United are committed to a triple for England midfielder The Mirror reports.

WEMBLEY WAY TO GO
It’s a component of Wembley’s fabric.
Before the Arch, he met the Twin Towers.
But most of the delight is the walk along Wembley Way from the subway station, surrounded by enthusiasts and colors.
And, in the distance, on the catwalk, officially “the Olympic marches”. Built in 1974, to prevent enthusiasts from having to chart their way through a disused car park.
Now, like those towers, the bridge is also part of the story, being demolished to create a new House of the English game.
But if concrete can just talk, what stories it would tell.
LAMPS IN THE BACK
Frank Lampard has used his back to make an inventory of Chelsea’s season so far.
Speaking of tomorrow to Newcastle, Blues’ boss said: “I’ve taken stock.
“There were problems we lost earlier in the season that frustrated us, but in retrospect, I think it has been general for the course in terms of the stage as a team, with the arrival of new players and injuries.
“The foreign breakup came at a time when we were betting well, so I’m pretty satisfied with our current form, but the thing is, we didn’t get carried away.
“I took the time to check where we are.
“There are many innovations we can make, that’s our next goal.
THANK YOU CHRIST FOR THAT
Christian Pulisic is back in education as he tries to recover from injury.
The American will miss Saturday at St James’ Park, but enthusiasts will expect to see him back for next weekend’s stopover at Tottenham.

“And I’d like you to tell which coaches you’re calling and talking to them on the phone. He has the right, the strength to call the players he wants. “
“You need to win matches, especially after a defeat, the next game, even being a dead rubber, is a game. I completely sympathize with that.
“But, of course, we all know sterling will play in the City against us. When Eric Dier left the national team injured last month, he played two games for Tottenham.
“He did not play the Premier League match and the Europa League match. It took him a few weeks to recover. And Raheem’s going to play.
“These are the little main points that I think Gareth deserves for all of us. “

And that’s why he feels the need to call club leaders to calm his feelings and control a complicated scenario for him.
“I’d like you to say who. I would like you to say which coaches are putting pressure on the players to play . . .
‘PASS’
Former Chelsea ace Willian was “treated internally” through Arsenal after his break in Dubai in the foreign fortnight. Mikel Arteta insisted that the challenge is “resolved. “

Willian had not been called up for Brazil’s matches against Venezuela and Uruguay, and regulations suggest he has stayed in London.
But Arsenal manager Arteta has revealed that the challenge with Willian has been “resolved” and now he just needs to move on before this weekend in Newcastle.
Asked if Willian would play this weekend, Arteta said, “You’re left wondering more and more trouble.

TOP FLOPS

GARDIEN DE GOL – Kepa Arrizabalaga
Spain joined Chelsea with a club record of 71. 6 million pounds in the summer of 2018, also a world record for a goalkeeper.
But the Spaniard has never fully settled on the Blues and seems out of reach, making him howl after howl.

LEAD THE LIAM WAY – BREAKING
Fulham and Brighton Liam Rosenior’s former defense will assist the next FA president.
Rosenior was appointed to the six-person panel to locate Greg Clarke’s successor in disgrace, but Wembley’s executive leader Mark Bullingham revealed that he believes the next FA leader is unlikely to be a former player.
Paul Elliott, Les Ferdinand and even Gary Lineker have been advised as potential candidates for the FA’s public face. But Bullingham said: “There are two main spaces of paper.
“One is to be a certainly brilliant ambassador and to become on the national and foreign stage. Players can surely do it. But there is a condition of timing to lead the FA board of directors.
“We have a complex stakeholder board and it’s hard to see that anyone who has never led a board can step in and lead a complex stakeholder board in a 450 million-pound organization with 760 employees.
“We are conducting a review of the board and I would like to have player representation on the board. But if you ask me if that’s the role of president, my non-public answer would be no.
HE IS ZI MAN
Chelsea threw a thank you message from Hakim Ziyech, his striker, to Newcastle on Saturday.
The midfielder, the fit boy opposed to Sheffield United last time and The Blues enthusiasts will be waiting for more of the same.

Pay
MPs asked Prem chief Richard Masters why the 50 million pound reduction department bailout was not accepted.
Masters and EFL President Rick Parry were questioned last week by the election committee of all DCMS parties for the ongoing impasse.
Committee leader and conservative MP Julian Knight said he would send public letters to any of the men each week until the stage was resolved.
And now Knight has published the first batch of correspondence, saying that MPs Prem and EFL are “disappointed that they have reached an agreement that will ensure the survival of football clubs through the existing pandemic. “
Knight added: “There’s enough cash in the game to save football clubs, but we’re beginning to doubt that there’s enough leadership for that to happen. “
“We urge you to avoid disputes and succeed in an agreement. Fans have been waiting too long. We hope for something better and the enthusiasts deserve it. “
FRANK’S EVALUATION
Frank Lampard doesn’t think he’s going to be a manager for life given the stress of the job.
Speaking before his team’s lunchtime in Newcastle on Saturday, he said: “If I hope to have a successful career, I’ll sit down and pass on the memories to them and they’ll be a little more alive.
“And I’m going to get off with my circle of relatives and be a little more laughable where, as now, I’m not so much laughing because I’m engrossed in my work.
“Because I don’t need it to be an absolute life. I think there’s going to be a lifetime because it’s a high-pressure task I’m in, but for as long as I eat, I love it.
“What I know about my work, the sacrifices you make for the circle of relatives and for your developing children, is all I see, perhaps not in my fifties, but around the 1960s. I’d like to go this far, God willing, for all of us, maybe I’d like to get away from this a little bit.
FRANK’S BLUES
Chelsea will face Newcastle long north without star duo Christian Pulisic and Thiago Silva on Saturday.
But good news for Frank Lampard, with Kai Havertz recovering from a coronavirus to make the trip.
Pulisic will miss the game due to a hamcap tendon injury, Lampard showed on Friday.
The boss said: “Christian Pulisic is worthy of Newcastle, but he has gradually stepped up his training.
“It’s a pretty problematic injury, so let’s be careful. “
This means the Chelsea manager can play back Timo Werner on the left wing, with Tammy Abraham in the middle and Hakim Ziyech on the right.
Sincerely
Frank Lampard admitted that his thirteen years as a Chelsea player helped him get the coach’s concert at Stamford Bridge.
But the former midfielder believes his loyalty to the club deserves a shot.
Speaking about Newcastle’s future, he said: “Few others find a task in Chelsea after a year in Derby.
“It is transparent that betting thirteen years at the club helped me get the job, but also in my own way, I think I deserve it for the years I spent as a player and I took things into account and I know the club and I will surely do I’m doing well, so I think in this scenario I see the pitfalls.
“I had to kick my epass a little bit and say I’m in danger of ruining what’s just been finished in thirteen years to a certain extent, because if it doesn’t happen well, I’ll be judged harshly and very quickly. “
JAN AND SOLO
Chelsea goalkeeper Jan Oblak continues through the crowd.
Slovenian No. 1 helped him qualify for the B Nations League with a 0-0 draw in Greece.
Oblak’s transfer from Atletico Madrid to Stamford Bridge has been sabotaged through technical adviser Petr Cech to point out Edouard Mendy del Rennes.

. . .

But Olivier Giroud, a bad man for Les Bleus, is said to have scheduled a launch in January after only six appearances so far this season.
The Guardian claims that Giroud, 34, is in a position to end his three-year stay at Stamford Bridge after Didier Deschamps warned him that his position in France’s starting lineup for The Euros is in danger.
