If Chelsea continue on this trajectory they may have to be handicapped in some way to give the rest a chance!
We all knew that it was only a matter of time, after Jose’s return, before the club had a serious side again. Mourinho already knew the club well and he’s tweaked the squad to give them a bit more power, speed and athleticism.
Gone are some of the more extravagant luxuries like Mata and Luiz. In have come warriors like Matic and Costa. Chelsea no longer have passengers in their squad.
And there is has been a persistent link with another player who fits perfectly into the Mourinho mould. The Metro goes as far as to say that Chelsea are in talks with Sami Khedira over a summer transfer.
Chelsea are hopeful of signing Sami Khedira on a free transfer at the end of the season with talks set to begin over a lucrative move to Stamford Bridge.
So could he improve Chelsea? Well he would likely sit alongside Nemanja Matic in the ‘2’ in front of defence. We really like Ramires but Khedira tends to have a bigger influence on games. His passing is also top notch.
Khedira has the sort of metronomic style as another German who did a great job at Chelsea – Michael Ballack.
Let’s see Khedira in action. Blues fans: what’s not to like?
