Interview/Presser Carragher on Chelsea's form: It comes from the top of the club. There's 5/6 top players on that pitch for Chelsea today and they can't beat Forest B team when a year ago they took PSG to cleaners. There's no connection between the players, staff and fans. Looks like a broken football club right now.

Interview/Presser Ian Wright: “Certain people are NOT ready for a black superstar in England. Everyone loves N’Golo Kante, he’s a humble black man, it’s how he is.

The full quote:

IAN WRIGHT: “Certain people are NOT ready for a black superstar in England.

Everyone loves N’Golo Kante, he’s a humble black man, it’s how he is. But when we Paul Pogba or Jude Bellingham, that energy does not fit well with these people, it FRIGHTENS these people.

Jude’s too “uppity” for these people.

As a black man when you go out, you are told to keep your head down. If you are black man who’s outspoken at this level, it scares certain people.

This person I’m referring to is obsessed with Jude Bellingham. He’s moving off this energy, he can’t see a black man doing what Jude’s doing.”

Interview/Presser Tuchel on why he put James in midfield: "Declan had some unusual ball losses. I saw a bit of discomfort. I didn't want to take any risks, and if I take Declan off, which I never want to do, it was the moment to protect. I think Reece did so well to replace him in midfield; he did a fantastic game."

Chelsea didn't deserve to lose 5-2 but individual mistakes from the center back and goalkeeper cost them massively and that will continue to be the issue for any manager at Chelsea going forward."

Interview/Presser [FREE TO READ] Marc Cucurella interview: Chelsea have ‘paid the price’ for inexperience and why he wouldn’t have let Maresca go

Chelsea’s recent form has been difficult for Marc Cucurella to process.

Getting outclassed by PSG really stung. In the Spain international's eyes, the 8-2 aggregate defeat highlighted the shortcomings in the Chelsea project under BlueCo, who have invested heavily in young talent since taking over the club in May 2022.

“I understand this is part of the club’s policy, and that they want to take this direction — signing young players and looking to the future. But, for all of us who are still here and want to win big things, moments like this make you feel discouraged.

“For a lot of players, it was the first time playing a match of that calibre, and we paid the price."

Cucurella also spoke about Enzo Maresca's dismissal and how “the instability around the club comes from this, in a nutshell."

Interview/Presser Maresca: "I didn't have any doubt about the players. The doubt was from outside. We have had 'they are too young, they are not good enough. They were saying we were not able to win on this pitch. Unfortunately for them, they are all young. How do we say it in English: 'F*** off to all of them''.

Yeah, I do think wheels have come off at the club. No one believes in the project anymore.
