“I know I’m 100 percent in a position to help if I want to. I’m in good shape, and with the two months of training, I saw that it had the same quality.
Besides, I rested for a year without betting on football, it gave me energy.
“My body recovered after 20 years as a professional. If the cases put me on the ground, I’m ready. “
WE’VE WEIGHED IT.
Timo Werner says Chelsea can win the Champions League this season thanks to the build-up of European matches.

He added: “We’re here to say, “We’ll be in the next circular and we’ll see,” we’re here to win the Champions League in the coming years.
“And this year is a possibility because everyone at the festival has many matches.
“Each team wants to think about how it can handle it, who it can play and how many matches it can play consecutively.
“I came here to win titles. We are on the right track and we have a great chance of going very well in this competition.
ICYMI – ABOUT THE REINDEER
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard insisted that his team deserve not to take the Ligue 1 rennes team lightly at Stamford Bridge.
He said: “We are satisfied with our stage in the organization after two matches, but we cannot be complacent.

JUL IN THE CROWN
Rennes manager Julien Stephan has been highly praised through Chelsea, the striker of the two clubs fighting at Stamford Bridge the night.

“They can do very well at the festival and do well in the Premier League. “
HE’S THE WERN.
Chelsea striker Timo Werner has described Kai Havertz as one of the “world’s greatest players. “
The German said, “I know Kai very well and he is one of the most talented players in the world. “
“He’s a 21-year-old boy and he can be informed a lot, but he can already play as a very, very old and sensible player. I think so far he’s feeling very smart here. A bit like me, he’s communicated a lot about settling down and he’s very pleased to be here.
“In many matches he showed what he can do, which he can bring to the team. For Kai, it’s very important to score, but I think what you can see in his game is much more than scoring goals as a midfielder. .
“He plays a lot of key passes, he makes a lot of movement for the other players. It’s very good and feels good. “
“It will get bigger and bigger, like me, it came to a new country, a new language and a new taste for football and will have to learn. But so far he’s playing really well and let’s see a lot more smart games of it.

This is how Les Bleus was last given in Europe . . .
ENTER IT
Manchester United and Chelsea must have followed Arsenal’s long-term target, Samuel Chukwueze.
90min claims the 21-year-old Villarreal star is attracting suitors from some of the most sensitive clubs in Europe.
Arsenal have been a fan of Chukwueze for some time.
But now he has joined them in the hunt through their rivals United and Chelsea.
Chukwueze has already played 84 games for Villarreal despite his young age, scoring 12 goals in the process.
Leicester and Everton are reported to be interested in the far left.
But all interested parties must comply with the Chukwueze clause, which amounts to 80 million pounds.
FROM ARROZ TO DEBRIS
Maurizio Sarri may be in a position to return to control with reports in Italy linking former Chelsea coach to Fiorentina and Roma.
Juventus fired the 61-year-old this summer after a year at the helm.
Sarri and Juve are still in talks about their monetary agreement and this can delay the move to the team.
But La Gazzetta dello Sport says Fiorentina is in Italian.
However, the Italian media calcioMercato states that Sarri would prefer Roma to Fiorentina, as he is looking for a team that may one day win Serie A.
IN THE REINS
Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has insisted that his appearance deserves not to take the look of Rennes Ligue 1 lightly at Stamford Bridge.
He said: “We are satisfied with our stage in the organization after two matches, but we cannot be complacent.
“We have to be more sensitive to ourselves.

PUL RETURN
Chelsea was driven through Christian Pulisic’s return to education after a scare on the hamr tendon.
The 21-year-old is expected to return to action soon, the Blues Champions League match against Rennes will be lost tomorrow, according to The Athletic reporter Simon Johnson.
He tweeted: “Lampard says Pulisic had a very minor ham ham tendon injury – he’s back in CFC education. But I’ll face Rennes. “
I HAVE TO.
Chelsea welcome Rennes to The Night of the Champions League.
And Jack Figg of SunSport believes Kai Havertz will be used as number 8 through Chief Frank Lampard.
CUT INTO THE CROSSFIRE
Thibaut Courtois’ father criticized Keylor Navas and accused former Real Madrid goalkeeper of being a “good companion”.
Thierry Courtois says the Costa Rican has put the “complicated” stuff on the Belgian stopper after his move from Chelsea’s megabucks in 2018.
Courtois, 28, made a sensational summer transfer to Spain of 38 million pounds from Stamford Bridge two years ago after a successful seven-year season with the Blues.
Thierry told The Last Hour: “Petr beat him a lot (in Chelsea).
“He was the first to come looking for him in his first training, gave him recommendation and helped him integrate.
“He was a wonderful teammate I could count on. You can’t say the same about Keylor.
“Your arrival a little complicated. The season had already begun and he was behind in his preparations.
“Its integration was not easy because Keylor was there, there was complicated internal competitiveness.
“External too, with the journalists, who were in favor of Keylor. Once he went to PSG, everything easier.
rice
Frank Lampard will make a move for Declan Rice in January, as he considers a new defensive midfielder, according to reports.
The Blues send the West Ham ace to update N’Golo Kante’s role in the camp to play Frenchman in a more complex position.
Lampard looked for Rice, 21, this summer, but was unable to increase the budget needed to sell the Hammers.
He spent more than two hundred million pounds on Timo Werner, Kai Havertz, Hakim Ziyech and Ben Chilwell despite the monetary crisis caused by the pandemic.
Athletic writes how two first-team players leave to balance the books and increase the budget needed to point to Rice.
West Ham would not be willing to pass it profitably with an estimated value of about 80 million pounds.
CHRIS OF LIFE
Great taste for Chelsea . . .
Christian Pulisic’s injury is not as severe as was feared in the first place after the effects of his scans.
Frank Lampard says he’s already back in training.
However, it will not be compatible with Rennes.

CLOSED ON THE OUTSIDE
The FA has shown that ALL football under the National League point will be suspended for 4 weeks from Thursday.
Despite calls for youth football and children’s football to be allowed at the time of lockdown, the government insisted that the measures would cover all levels of the game.
And Wembley’s bosses have now officially told football clubs that they don’t yet have a selection to close until at least December 2.
The new restriction bans “all games and training” for National League clubs.
This means that the 10 National League clubs that will participate in the first FA Cup circular this weekend will be exercised after Wednesday.
The regulations apply to women’s football at point two of the pyramid and also exclude “all matches and education for base football and futsal for young people and adults”.
CHIPS ARE LOW
West Brom loan manager Paul Terry faces a heer fine and possible suspension after being charged with violating FA betting rules.
Terry, brother of Assistant Aston Villa manager and former England and Chelsea captain John, is accused of placing 209 bets between November 2017 and October 2019.
Terry filed charges last week under FA Rule E8 and has until next Tuesday to respond to the allegations.
The E8 rule is in fact a general ban that applies to all participants in professional football.
It states: “A player must not bet, directly or indirectly, or instruct, allow, galvanize or allow betting on the outcome, progression, conduct or any other aspect . . . adjustment or football competition. “
The case will be dealt with through an independent FA commission with unlimited powers.
However, Terry is more likely to face a really extensive fine than a ban if found guilty, as he does not actively participate in matches in West Brom.
ENOUGH ED
Chelsea legend Eddie Newton has been fired through Trabzonspor after seven league games.
The 48-year-old left his training position at Stamford Bridge in February to continue his career with the Turkish team.
He joined Trabzonspor as an assistant to the club’s interim coach.
Newton guided the club to the glory of the Turkish Cup at the end of last season, which earned him the task permanently.
But he laid off his first managerial position after the club’s terrible start to the season.
CECH MATE
Petr Cech insists he is “100% ready” to play for Chelsea after his surprise inclusion in Frank Lampard’s Premier League team.
And the veteran 38-year-old archer downplayed skeptics by saying he still had the “same quality” as in his peak days.
Cech named Chelsea’s fourth goal scorer in an astonishing move through former teammate Lampard, despite retiring from football last year.
He said: “It would have been true that it would have been a professional mistake to do this if I were at the Premier League level, but that’s how we painted here.
“I know I’m 100 percent in a position to help if I want to. I’m in good shape, and with the two months of training, I saw that it had the same quality.
Besides, I rested for a year without betting on football, it gave me energy.
“My body has recovered after 20 years as a professional. If the cases put me on the ground, I’m ready. “
GIN TONIC
Chelsea will update German defender Matthias Ginter, who has been hailed as the new Sergio Ramos.
The Blues have already signed striker Timo Werner and offensive midfielder Kai Havertz from the Bundesliga this year.
But Chief Frank Lampard is now in a position to make an offer for Borussia Moenchengladbach’s central Ginter medium.
The 26-year-old has been with Real Madrid legend Ramos through The German World Cup-winning captain and former Sun Sport columnist Lothar Mattheus.
Mattheus told Sky Sports Germany: “Ginter has a leader back, just like Ramos in the Real.
“Not only does he give orders to his companions, but he also directs them. That’s what Ginter’s doing right right now. Reminds me of Ramos.
AT THE LENGTH OF AHM
Chelsea bet on 6. 9 million pounds for former Nottingham Forest defender Anel Ahmedhodzic, reportedly.
The 21-year-old central left the league club for Malmo early last year and was inspired by Sweden.
According to Swedish newspaper Kvallposten, Chelsea is one of many Europeans interested in Ahmedhodzic.
Les Bleus will reportedly be offered 6. 9 million pounds for the young man, who would be offered a five-year contract.
Ahmedhodzic has a contract at Malmo until 2023.
CRAZY DOESN’T
Atletico Madrid is a surprise move for former Chelsea sensationalist Tariq Lamptey, according to reports.
However, the La Liga giants face the festival of Spanish rivals Seville and European champion Bayern Munich for the young man.
According to the Daily Mail, Diego Simeone has been inspired by Lamptey’s remarkable form since signing for Brighton.
The 20-year-old moved from Chelsea to the South Coast on a three-year contract in January.
With Reece James in place at Stamford Bridge, the right-back has taken the resolve to move his career elsewhere.
YOUR THING
Tim Sherwood backs Chelsea to fight for the name this season.
Former Spurs chief believes Frank Lampard’s strength means his four-year wait for champions could end next summer.
He said: “I’m firmly watching the champions today, no matter what match they’re going to watch,” Sherwood told Premier League Productions.
It’ll be Liverpool, Chelsea or Manchester City, that’s my opinion.
“I think Chelsea have a team now, I still think they’re a little poor defensively, but I think they have the firepower to challenge. “
“It is clear that Liverpool have defensive problems, with [Virgil] Van Dijk absent, will be crucial.
“Suddenly, Man City has a defense that likes to win a championship.
“They’ll have to have [Sergio] Aguero with compatibility and a little more firepower there, so I’d also give them a genuine chance. But I can’t see beyond those three teams. “
CHRIS IS TALKING
Christian Pulisic will be “absent for weeks” with a tug on the ham cord tendon, says Frank Lampard.
He commented, “He’s played three games, we’ve tried to handle it in the week and it’s a little feeling in his ham ham, so we’re going to have to see how he’s doing in the next 24 hours. “
”It’s a minor feeling you had, but it wasn’t the right one, to get into the 90 minutes of the game with that.
“Hopefully it’s short-term, we’re talking about weeks. “
FANS OF THE GOOD DAY BLUES
Chelsea are in favour of their Champions League clash against French club Rennes as they seek to win three rebounds.
Frank Lampard’s team also had four consecutive blank leaves following the inclusion of Thiago Silva and Edouard Mendy in the team.
Meanwhile, rumors that the London club still cares about Declan Rice, as they see him as the long-term midfielder to upgrade N’Golo Kante.
Chelsea tried to run for Rice last window, but they were rejected by West Ham, who demanded a lot of cash for their star.
Paul Merson leads the calls for Antonio Rudiger to return completely to the fold and play as a centre-back.
The Sky Sports expert says German is the “best choice” for Thiago Silva and believes he can stay and play a great component in the season.
Ultimately, Chelsea’s under-18s fell to defeat in the FA Cup final against Manchester City, losing 3-2 in a brilliant match.
