Chelsea Fans Demand New Signings After Europa Conference League Loss
Chelsea supporters are calling for more signings following the club’s recent 2-1 defeat to Swiss side Servette in the Europa Conference League. Despite advancing on aggregate, the result left fans far from satisfied.
The Match Breakdown
The game began on a positive note for the Blues, with Christopher Nkunku converting a penalty to give the visitors an early lead. However, Servette’s Jeremy Guillemenot equalized before the halftime whistle. Then, with just 18 minutes left, Enzo Crivelli headed in a cross from Miroslav Stevanovic, making it 2-1. Although Servette couldn’t find the extra goal needed to push the tie into extra time, Chelsea managed to hang on, securing a 3-2 win on aggregate.
Fans Demand Defensive Reinforcements
The performance, particularly in defense, has left Chelsea fans clamoring for more signings before the transfer window closes on Friday. Social media has been flooded with calls for the club to bolster their backline, with many questioning the capabilities of the current defenders.
Enzo Maresca has already been busy in the transfer market, bringing in eight new first-team players this summer. However, only one of them, Tosin Adarabioyo, is a center-back. The performances of Axel Disasi and Benoît Badiashile have drawn significant criticism, with fans expressing their dissatisfaction online.
One fan remarked, “I wouldn’t be against Disasi and Badiashile leaving before the deadline.” Another added, “Chelsea wanting to sell Chalobah when Badiashile is literally the worst defender Chelsea have ever signed in the club’s history.”
Others echoed similar sentiments, with one saying, “There isn’t a single person in the world that can convince me that Disasi and Badiashile are better than Chalobah.” Another fan stated, “I hope we buy a quality defender tomorrow. It’s one thing being good on the ball, but you need to defend. HUGE question marks on all three—Disasi, Tosin, and especially Badiashile.”
A final comment summarized the frustration: “Deadline day needs Osimhen and center-backs. Between Badiashile, Disasi, and Chalobah (through no fault of his own), someone needs to leave. We need a CB.”
Sterling and Chilwell’s Uncertain Futures
Amid the fan discontent, Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell are also seeking clarity on their futures at Stamford Bridge. Both players have been informed that they are not part of Maresca’s plans for the season.
The manager made it clear that those not involved now will not see any game time if they remain after the window closes. “I prefer to be honest with players,” Maresca said. “The ones who are not involved are not going to be involved, and they won’t get any minutes if they stay.”
Regarding Sterling, Maresca added, “Raheem is a fantastic guy who has trained very well. Every manager has a different idea, and he is the kind of winger that is not one that I like. History and numbers speak for Raheem. He knows exactly what he needs to do.”
With the transfer window deadline approaching, Chelsea fans are hoping for last-minute reinforcements to address their defensive concerns and solidify the team’s future prospects.
