Thomas Tuchel's damning verdict on Chelsea flop Romelu Lukaku has been challenged by Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer.The Blues edged to a 1-0 win over Crystal Palace, but Lukaku was once again anonymous for most of the match.The striker touched the ball just seven times during Saturday's derby clash - the lowest of any Premier League player to complete 90 minutes since data was first collated at the beginning of the 2003/04 campaign.However, Tuchel denied after the game that Lukaku's ineffectiveness was down to Chelsea's system - a claim that both Lineker and Shearer refuted.The former striking duo hinted that the Blues should do more to get the best out of their club-record signing.But Tuchel was defiant after the match, insisting: "No, no, it's not about the system."Well, it is what it is. But for him, there is no change of system because it's the same attacking structure."But that didn't wash at all with Shearer, the Premier League's all-time leading goalscorer, who leapt to Lukaku's defence.He told Match of the Day: "It's clear that they [Chelsea] aren't working on things on the training ground as they are not doing it during the game for him [Lukaku] or for the team."Do you think Chelsea should be doing more to get the best out of Lukaku? Let us know in the comments section. And Lineker, the show's host, went one further by insisting that he'd be "hammering people" if he were in Lukaku's position.

Chelsea fans want "virus" Romelu Lukaku sold after he produced a shockingly bad performance against Crystal Palace.Thomas Tuchel's side were 1-0 winners in the Premier League clash but the result was in no part thanks to Lukaku, who had just two touches of the ball in the first-half.And one of them came from kick-off.The striker finished the game with a total of seven touches, while he was twice flagged offside and also committed two fouls throughout the 90 minutes.Having already rubbed the club's fanbase up the wrong way with his bombshell interview earlier this season, his latest outing was the final straw for many Blues supporters.One tweeted: "Lukaku should be sold tbh . Cut our losses."Another claimed: "Literally everyone has become worse thanks to Lukaku.

Chelsea's trip to take on Crystal Palace on Saturday was their first Premier League game for 27 days since beating Tottenham - and Thomas Tuchel was left with mixed emotions.The Blues, on the back of their Club World Cup triumph, struggled for long periods as Patrick Vieira's men held firm while creating chances of their own.Although the away side did steal all three points thanks to Hakim Ziyech, there wasn't an awful lot to be positive about for their manager.Daily Star Sport have taken a look at three things Tuchel got wrong on the day and one he got right, one of which involves a player who touched the ball only twice during the opening 45 minutes.

Chelsea midfielder Jorginho has admitted that he still 'dreams' about playing under Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola following a failed move to the Etihad Stadium in 2018.

Middlesbrough manager brandished Chelsea hero Cesar Azpilicueta as "lucky" for his illustrious career.Snapped up for the bargain price of £6.5 million in 2012, Azpilicueta, 32, has guided Chelsea through arguably the most prominent period in their history, captaining the side to Champions League glory last season.The last time the Blues lifted the 'big ears' trophy was under former skipper John Terry, who famously donned a full Chelsea kit for the post-match celebrations despite playing no part in the final itself.But the Spaniard's honours list wasn't enough to convince Warnock he's worthy to represent the Blues on the field with the 73-year-old labelling him "a fortunate lad to be at a club like Chelsea."But from one Blues legend to another, Terry has jumped to defend Azpilicueta following Neil Warnock's appearance on TalkSPORT."Is this a wind up ? @talkSPORT" stated Terry alongside an angry face emoji.The ex-Chelsea ace also posted nine trophy emojis next to the comment in relation to the number of honours Azpilicueta has won whilst at the club.Former teammate Cesc Fabregas was also aghast by Warnock's comments, replying with a facepalm emoji.HAVE YOUR SAY! Do you think Cesar Azpilicueta is fortunate to be at Chelsea? Let us know in the comments section."I think Azpilicueta has been a very fortunate lad to be at a club like Chelsea. I don't think he is a great defender," said Warnock."Sometimes in football, you need a bit of luck and I think he's had a bit of luck at the right time and in the right place.

Arsenal fans will have loved Armando Broja's celebration against Tottenham Hotspurs earlier this month.Broja has been one of the breakout stars of the Premier League campaign this season, and he continued his golden vein of form with a strike against Spurs.The youngster then ran in front of the Spurs supporters as he let out a massive roar in front of the fans.And with Arsenal linked to the Chelsea loanee, they'll be licking their lips at the cheeky celebration.Mikel Arteta is reportedly a big fan of the English-born Albanian international, and the Gunners could make their move in the summer.According to football.london, Arteta could look to Broja to solve his attacking woes.Arsenal will be without a recognised striker in June with both Eddie Nketiah and Alexandre Lacazette out of contract in the summer.On top of that, Arsenal lost Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Barcelona on Transfer Deadline Day after the Gabonese international had failed to make a first-team appearance since December.Meanwhile, Arteta also missed out on Dusan Vlahovic, who moved to Juventus from Fiorentina. Should Broja move to Arsenal, or does he deserve a chance at Chelsea? Let us know in the comments section Thomas Tuchel, earlier this season, said: “He’s our player and he’s doing good, but at the same time it’s only half a season, so he needs to continue to improve and to make his statement at Southampton.“We have a reason why they are our players, they have quality and mentality and now they are out there on their own in different environments and clubs and proving themselves.“Armando’s getting better and better, he’s a very unique player with unique strengths in his game - he has speed, he’s robust and he’s a goalscorer.”

football.london.Broja had not made an appearance for Chelsea before being sent out on loan, though he has always been tipped to have a bright future while working his way up through the academy.With Arteta building a squad with young talents that will improve and create a star-studded squad when those players continue to improve, it is no surprise that the 20-year-old is one of his top targets.But Chelsea are expected to be incredibly reluctant to part ways with their academy graduate given that they are starting to look short of a different option in the final third.Romelu Lukaku has struggled to set the league alight since his return from Inter Milan, and Timo Werner is continuing to look better utilised as a winger rather than through the middle.Discussing Broja earlier this season, Thomas Tuchel said: “He’s our player and he’s doing good, but at the same time it’s only half a season, so he needs to continue to improve and to make his statement at Southampton.“We have a reason why they are our players, they have quality and mentality and now they are out there on their own in different environments and clubs and proving themselves.“Armando’s getting better and better, he’s a very unique player with unique strengths in his game - he has speed, he’s robust and he’s a goalscorer.”Chelsea rejected a bid from Southampton last month for the no.9 which could be a sign of how highly the club rate Broja and thus how unlikely it is that the Stamford Bridge outfit will accept a bid from Arsenal for the star.

Chelsea fans are up in arms after ESPN pundit Craig Burley slammed the club for celebrating their Club World Cup triumph "like a World Cup win".Goals from Romelu Lukaku and Kai Havertz saw the Blues edge past Palmeiras on Saturday to be crowned champions of the world as they secured the only piece of major silverware that had been missing from their trophy cabinet. But as Chelsea's jubilant players and supporters celebrated, Burley insisted he had a problem with the way the club was "salivating" over winning what he describes as a "plastic cup"."As they're off celebrating like they've won the World Cup, Manchester City are racking up a 16 point lead on Chelsea where it really matters - the Premier League, the big competitions, " the former Scotland international said."They're off there celebrating like they're the greatest thing since sliced bread, meanwhile they're getting their backsides booted all over the place from Manchester City.

Chelsea won the tournament for the first time in their history as they beat South American champions Palmeiras 2-1 after extra time in the United Arab Emirates on Saturday.Kai Havertz's penalty three minutes from the end of extra time sealed victory after Romelu Lukaku had seen his second-half header cancelled out during normal time.The Blues avenged their defeat to Corinthians in 2012 and became the third English club to be crowned world champions after Liverpool and Manchester United.However, it was the antics of their German defender that caught Chelsea fans' eyes following Havertz's late winning goal.As the players gathered in the corner to celebrate the goal and congratulate Havertz, Rudiger was seen acting bizarrely.Firstly, he picked up a foldaway chair from the other side of the advertising hoardings and slammed it on the top of the hoardings before waving it about.Will Chelsea finish in the top four this season? Let us know in the comments section below.He then chucked it back over as Jorginho attempted to get him to join in with the celebratory huddle.Instead, Rudiger swung a wild punch at the corner flag, lightly brushing the flag before running off back towards the centre circle in celebration.Chelsea's celebrations were well-earned, as it had looked as if Palmeiras were going to take the Champions League winners all the way to penalties.Lukaku's 54th-minute header had Thomas Tuchel's side in front for just 10 minutes before Raphael Vega levelled the score again from the penalty spot.However, the Brazilian giants would end the match with 10 men after Luan Garcia was given his marching orders at the end of extra time.The defender's sliding challenge cleaned out Havertz as he ran through on goal in the sixth

Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta showed his experience with a genius trick to fool the Palmeiras players in the dying minutes of the Club World Cup final on Saturday.With the game tied at 1-1, the Blues were awarded a spot-kick just as extra time was drawing to a close.Azpilicueta picked the ball up and began hovering around the penalty spot.He cleverly made the Palmeiras players think he was about to step up and take it, and absorbed all their attempts to get in his head, before handing the ball to Kai Havertz.The silky German, just as he did in the Champions League final last season, rippled the net to win the match and the tournament for Chelsea."What a player and what a captain," one Chelsea fan tweeted. "Azpilicueta is completely underrated and under appreciated.""That's genius.

Chelsea lifted the Club World Cup trophy on Saturday night after beating Palmeiras 2-1 after extra time. Romelu Lukaku opened the scoring in the 55th minute when he powered his header past goalkeeper Weverton following some good work from Callum Hudson-Odoi down the left.

Romelu Lukaku has continued to stir up speculation surrounding his Chelsea future after posting a cryptic message to his Snapchat.The Belgian has found himself in the headlines in recent months after expressing his desire to return to Inter Milan and criticising the tactics of Blues' manager Thomas Tuchel in a controversial interview with Sky Italy.In the build-up to Saturday's Club World Cup final against Brazilian outfit Palmeiras, the striker has now caused another stir with his latest social media activity.In a post to his Snapchat on Friday, Lukaku wrote: "If you have to force it then it probably doesn't fit."While it remains unclear what exactly the 28-year-old is referring to, the timing of the cryptic message is far from ideal.The dust has only just settled following the uproar caused by the remarks made in his recent interview, in which he appeared to take aim at Tuchel."Physically I'm fine, even better than before," Lukaku told Sky Italy. "After two years in Italy, in which I worked a lot at Inter with trainers and nutritionists, I am physically fine.

Chelsea have readied a private jet to whisk Thomas Tuchel to the Club World Cup if he tests negative for Covid. Tuchel needs to provide two negative results before he can travel to Abu Dhabi and link up with his squad.The club are prepared to fly him out on Saturday morning - just hours before the final - to oversee preparations.Chelsea have been without their German boss for the past week after he tested positive for Covid on Saturday.But he is keen to make the Club World Cup final against Palmeiras, and is ready to make the trip at short notice.

Goal report that the Stamford Bridge club have offered closer to his £200,000 a week demands, with Tuchel understandably desperate to keep hold of his star defender. And the German displayed his importance in this win, producing a typically-dominant performance at the heart of Chelsea's defence to ensure they head to the final with a much-needed clean sheet.

Chelsea’s summer transfer window as he reportedly lines up a move for Jules Kounde.Kounde was a target for the Blues last summer, but their move for the Sevilla star collapsed on deadline day after a disagreement over the fee.The 23-year-old has starred for Sevilla since joining the La Liga side in 2019, helping them to win the Europa League and playing a key role in their unexpected title challenge this season.Tuchel has been keen to improve his defensive options for some time, with Antonio Rudiger, Cesar Azpilicueta and Andreas Christensen all out of contract in the summer.French international Kounde is one of his top targets, with Chelsea expected to launch a renewed effort to sign him.But they are facing competition from Barcelona, with Xavi hoping to upset Tuchel’s well-laid transfer plans.According to Sport, Barca are ‘keen’ to sign a replacement for veteran defender and club legend Gerard Pique.Xavi believes that Kounde is the ‘ideal man’ to take Pique’s place in Barca’s backline, following his impressive performances for Sevilla.Who do you think Jules Kounde should join: Chelsea or Barcelona? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section...The Barcelona boss is thought to be a ‘massive fan’ of the centre-back, who has helped Sevilla to secure 12 clean sheets in all competitions this season.Defence is the next area on Xavi’s shopping list, having successfully bolstered his attack in the January window with the signings of Ferran Torres and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.But that outlay could leave them struggling to compete with Chelsea’s financial strength, with Barca still suffering financial problems.Want to be on the ball with all of the latest football news?Well then sign up for the brilliant Daily Star

Chelsea have one of the best academies in the world and their impact on the football pyramid has been far-reaching. However, not all players that come up through Cobham go on to make it and the pathway to the first-team has been blurry during Roman Abramovich’s reign.

Chelsea’s forgotten star Kenedy has been given another shot at resurrecting his dwindling career by manager Thomas Tuchel.The Brazilian winger, 25, has been included in the Blues’ Premier League squad for the first time since 2018 and is training with the first team after being recalled from his loan spell at Flamengo in January.Kenedy was tipped for big things when he signed for £6.3million as a teenager in 2015, but his career lost momentum while he was repeatedly sent out on loans to the likes of Watford, Newcastle, Getafe and Grenada.But Tuchel believes the player is now ready for a return despite his last competitive game for Chelsea coming against Norwich four years ago.When asked whether Kenedy was being given another chance to prove himself, the German claimed the talent is being presented with a “huge opportunity”.He said: “Absolutely a clean slate. Yes, I cannot agree more.

Chelsea progressed into the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 2-1 victory over League One side Plymouth Argyle after extra time - but it wasn’t all smooth sailing for the Blues.Marcos Alonso came off the bench to score the winner in the 107th minute after he slotted home after a neat passing move by the Premier League outfit.There was a sense of relief as the full time whistle sounded, especially considering the away side took the lead through Macauley Gillespie in the 8th minute when the defender rose above Romelu Lukaku to guide a header past Kepa Arrizabalaga.Chelsea then equalised through captain Cesar Azpilicueta backheeled a smart finish from a cross from Callum Hudson-Odoi into the far corner four minutes before the half time break.The victory felt inevitable in extra time, though more so because Plymouth ran out of steam rather than Thomas Tuchel’s side upping the ante.However, the wheels almost fell off of the bus in the 115th minute after Malang Sarr made an error on the edge of his own box before bringing down Ryan Hardie in the penalty area, but his spot kick was saved.Tuchel wasn’t present at Stamford Bridge as he tested positive for Covid-19 on Friday, though he was still in charge of the team from his home.So, what did the former PSG boss get right and wrong on the day?HAVE YOUR SAY! Who will win the FA Cup? Comment below.Despite Reece James now seemingly the first choice right-back at Chelsea, it hasn’t prevented Azpilicueta from proving why he deserves a contract extension at the club in the Englishman's absence.The Spaniard was an ever-present threat for the Blues, providing width and thus allowing Hakim Ziyech to cut on to his more favoured left foot without it narrowing the play.But it was the

Romelu Lukaku has been blasted by fans online for his lacklustre marking that led to Plymouth Argyle to go 1-0 up against Chelsea. In the FA Cup Fourth Round at Stamford Bridge, the Pilgrims opened the scoring when Macaulay Gillesphey nodded them in front on eight minutes after he latched onto a free-kick.Subsequent replays, however, showed that it was Lukaku who was supposed to be marking the defender, and it looked as though the 28-year-old hardly jumped in an attempt to win the ball.Blues fans fumed online, saying that the Belgian was being ‘weak’ for not defending the ball well.One supporter wrote: “Lukaku weak as s*** there.”Another raged: “Incredibly weak from Lukaku.”Someone wrote: “Ffs….

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is set to miss the Club World Cup after testing positive for Covid.The Blues announced news of the German's positive test shortly before their FA Cup fourth-round match against Plymouth Argyle.As a result, assistant coach Arno Michels led the team against the League One Pilgrims at Stamford Bridge. And Michels will now be forced to take charge for at least one of Chelsea's Club World Cup games, too, while Tuchel quarantines in the UK.
