AIR CONDITIONING
Conor Gallagher is going to get a new contract with Chelsea.
The midfielder was inspired by separate loans to Charlton and Swansea last season.
He is now fit to be loaned out to the new Premier League guys, West Brom.
And the Birmingham Mail says he will first sign his contract with Chelsea before joining the Baggies.
TROPHIES AND CHILDREN
Frank Lampard is right that he spent 50 million pounds in Leicester City and England’s left-back Ben Chilwell.
The manager explained: “With Ben Chilwell, he’s a player I know very well, lately he’s been England’s first-choice left-back.
“Great qualities in which you can participate, is athletic, your physique, your game and the quality of your left foot.
“Then, for us, in terms of how you can help on the left side, in attack and in defense, which of course is above all else, I am extremely happy to paint with it, so I think it’s a wonderful addition.
Don’t do it
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 is set to be Chelsea’s main striker this season and Giroud could be tempted by the offer of regular 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 presented himself to Lyon in exchange for Memphis Depay.
Tancredi Palmeri says Ronald Koeman will bring his former Dutch winger to the Camp Nou this summer.
And it means Umtiti, who has been linked with Man Utd, Chelsea and Arsenal this summer, could be returning to his former stomping ground at Lyon.
LOOK AND WERN
In case you missed it, here is Timo Werner’s first purpose for Chelsea.
RB Leipzig’s £ 47m summer contract took less than 4 minutes to come off target in Saturday’s 1-1 draw at Brighton.
And after plundering 34 goals last season, it will take a brave person to bet against Werner hitting similar numbers at Stamford Bridge.

MEN GO BLUE
Chlesea is signing Ajax star Amourricho van Axel Dongen.
The Telegraph claims Chelsea is 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 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 linked to Chelsea.
FANTASTIC
Frank Lampard thought it smart to have a following at 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 Bridge.
“But of course it has to be first, but it was a smart test.”
SILVA LINING
Frank Lampard shared his on new kid Thiago Silva.
He said: “With Thiago Silva we are facing a player that I know very well, like everyone else.
“He brings us a lot of experience, he plays at an incredibly superior level, as we saw in the final of the Champions League and the games towards the maximum.
“So I hope you come and bring that, that you bring your experience, your leadership and your qualities.
“This is going to be very good for us.”
ARTIST AGAINST
Conor Gallagher will likely be available for some other 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 out 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 would like to point out 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 “is not too serious” after being sent off in opposition to Brighton.
He said: “They gave him a little kick in the knee, a little twist that we are going to evaluate.
“I hope it’s not so bad.”
After appearing on one knee while awkwardly twisting from the sideline, he limped off the field.
Fantastic
Frank Lampard felt it was smart to have enthusiasts at the stadium on Saturday.
He said: “It’s 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 Bridge.
“But of course it has to be first, but it was a smart test.”
BLUES CRUISE
This is how the start of the season is for Frank Lampard’s team…
‘DARK HORSES’
Danny Murphy has asked Arsenal to challenge Chelsea and United for the sensible 4 next season, provided Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang remains and the signings have a good time.
Writing for the Mail, he said: “If they can upload a few more signatures, I think Arsenal can be a dark horse for the four most sensitive.
“As things stand, they would cause disdain to teams, but as much as they had runs, they are sometimes 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 can get Dani Ceballos on loan, their most productive player at the end of last season, and point to Thomas Partey of Atlético de Madrid, which would give them tenacity and physicality in midfield, I think they ‘have a squad to challenge the 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.”
BOY
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 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.
TALK TO FRANK
Frank Lampard congratulated new guys Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech after the Brighton win.
Speaking on the Chelsea club’s website, he said: “I think Timo was smart 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 envision his paint speed and everything in him as a wonderful start for him and Hakim Ziyech.”
BE FRANCO
Frank Lampard wants his Chelsea look, particularly 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.
“That’s the expectation from last summer, and if they were successful with a motion embargo, that’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 into the path of Werner, who spent his effort over Mat Ryan.
After the game, Abraham left a bray 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’s wrote that: “After the game, Lampard described it as a little knee twist that will want 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 he believes Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been “convinced to stay” with Arsenal.
He then added: “My task is to verify to convince him that he is 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 enthusiasts have been left drooling at the prospect of Timo Werner hitting with 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 boy Hakim Ziyech also showed his quality by betting a very good pass to identify the goal.
But it ended on a bitter note when the midfielder led a knee injury in the middle of the moment.
Chelsea’s doctor took no chances, as the physical therapists helped Ziyech as he left the Amex field.
Lampard later told Chelsea that Ziyech suffered “a small twist on the 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 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-BLUE-IGI
Chelsea are aiming for a move through AC Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma to update Kepa Arrizabalaga’s failure, according to reports.
Frank Lampard will upgrade the £ 71.6 million goalkeeper 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?
Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham is wanted through Aston Villa as he faces a big fight for his long career in west London.
The Blues signed Timo Werner this summer after the Bundesliga to RB Leipzig.
And Frank Lampard is reportedly bringing in the exciting German Kai Havertz from Bayer Leverkusen for £ 90 million.
Having also signed Hakim Ziyech from Ajax, Lampard could adopt a new dynamic for his front next season.
And Olivier Giroud made a new deal with the club at the end of last season and ended Abraham’s favorite season.
