Even though Chelsea have just booked their spot in the Conference League semi-finals, the team delivered a very poor display on Thursday night. Chelsea suffered a 2-1 defeat at home to Legia Warsaw in the second leg of the quarter-final tie. However, the Blues are into the Conference League semis via a 4-2 aggregate success because they won last week’s first leg by a 3-0 scoreline. Tomas Pekhart and Steve Kapuadi both scored for the Polish visitors to give them a win on the night.

Even though Chelsea’s form has been majorly inconsistent in 2025, Enzo Fernandez has emerged as a real favourite under Enzo Maresca. It’s a testament to the recent form of Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez that he’s started 20 of the club’s previous 21 games in the Premier League, only missing one match because of an injury knock. Blues manager Enzo Maresca hasn’t been shy in shuffling his pack, but the combination of Fernandez and Moises Caicedo in central midfield has been a constant.

Joe Cole has just made a worrying claim about what he’s seen at Chelsea recently. At this moment, the pressure is building at Chelsea because the season is in danger of unravelling. The Blues are currently sitting outside the Premier League’s top five positions, which will be enough to qualify for next year’s Champions League competition. If Chelsea miss out on Champions League football for a third straight season, it’ll be the clearest sign of the club’s regression in recent years.

The sheer volume of ins and outs at Stamford Bridge in the last couple of years means that Chelsea have had many successes and failures in the transfer market. The signings of stars such as Christopher Nkunku and Joao Felix simply haven’t worked out. Meanwhile, the sales of players such as Callum Hudson-Odoi and Conor Gallagher have angered supporters.

Chelsea continues to be linked with numerous strikers in the transfer rumour mill, so fans will be eager to see if they’ve got someone new leading the line next season. The reality is that the Chelsea squad is crying out for a prolific centre-forward to join it. Nicolas Jackson is currently the best striker at Stamford Bridge. However, he’s not an out-and-out goalscorer, netting only nine times in 27 appearances across all competitions so far this season.

Even though Chelsea host Legia Warsaw on Thursday night, Enzo Maresca should definitely have one eye on Sunday’s trip to Fulham. Chelsea are currently preparing to face Legia Warsaw at Stamford Bridge. The good news is that they go into the second leg of the Conference League quarter-final tie with a healthy aggregate lead after winning 3-0 in last week’s first leg. Unless there’s a dramatic upset, the English team should go through to the semi-finals if the players are professional and focused.

Malo Gusto has made an interesting claim about Chelsea star Christopher Nkunku amid his teammate’s struggles. Even though Christopher Nkunku is one of the high-profile players in the current Chelsea squad, it’s been a difficult season for him so far. On paper, the 27-year-old attacker has made a decent contribution for the Blues this campaign.
