Chelsea Fancast

Stamford Chidge, Jonathan Kydd and Mark Worrall join Aaron Paul to round up the Chelsea week and look ahead to the Chelsea v Arsenal match.The boys ask "what's the Sarri so far" and do they agree with his assertion that “in two months we can be a very good team."Will Kante's new role work? Is it a waste considering he’s the best defensive midfielder in the world? And what about Morata v Giroud – who should start? Morata is Sarri’s man but has no confidence so could Hazard be an option up front?With news of La Liga looking to play games in America, we ask how concerned should we be that the Premier League follow suit. As Chelsea face Arsenal on Saturday we ask is there anything to worry about and just to make sure we talk to Suburban Gooner for his take on the match as well as making our own predictions - how will it pan out, what’s key?Finally we ask who should be Chelsea’s new Director of Football.All this plus three new Chelsea songs accompanied by Mark Worrall's mythical 'stylophone'  See ac

Chelsea Legend Kerry Dixon is back for the new season of weekly podcasts with Stamford Chidge. On today's show Kerry and Chidge look back at Chelsea's 3-0 win against Huddersfield and ahead to Chelsea's first home match of the season against Arsenal on Saturday.Kerry gives his thoughts on Maurizio Sarri's start as Chelsea manager and how long it will take for the players to adapt to his style of football. We discuss Kante's new role in the side and what Jorginho brings to it.With apparently 3 players up for the left midfield position, will Barkley, Loftus Cheek or Kovacevic make the cut? And what chance do Callum Hudson-Odoi and Tammy Abrahams have of making it in to the Chelsea side.With two new managers at the helm of both clubs, Chelsea v Arsenal this Saturday may be harder than usual to call. Should Sarri start Morata or Giroud up front and has Kerry changed his view on Morata?Kerry explains why it was so important for Eden Hazard to stay at Chelsea and why he is the man to make the difference. Final

Stamford Chidge is joined by Chelsea Legend Kerry Dixon to look back on the disappointing draw against Huddersfield and look ahead to the last league match of the season against Newcastle.Chidge and Kerry ask why did Antonio Conte make 6 changes to the team that played so well in beating Liverpool? Against Liverpool the 3:5:2 worked; Bakayoko, Cahill, Moses looked good and with Giroud on form surely they didn;t need a rest.Why do we find it hard to break down stubborn teams like Huddersfield? Is it our inability to finish that has cost us again or is it squad depth? Has Kerry seen a more bizarre goal than Alonso’s.Although Conte has said that the decision on his future will be made after the FA Cup final, did he shoot himself in the foot against Huddersfield and will he go even if he makes top 4 and wins FA CupWith the draw against Huddersfield being a massive disappointment having had our hopes raised after beating Liverpool, should the traditional 'lap of appreciation' after the last home game been held aft
