Victor Osimhen has emerged as the ideal striker target for Chelsea based on Enzo Maresca’s tactical setup, while fan polls highlight Marc Guehi as a preferred defensive signing and Enzo Fernández finds form.
In today’s Chelsea FC newsletter, Si Phillips reflects on the international break, where Reece James and Enzo Fernández both impressed for their national teams. Fernández, in particular, is beginning to show consistent quality for both club and country, highlighted by a goal and assist against Brazil.
The newsletter also explores recent transfer debates among fans, including a poll that saw Marc Guehi narrowly favoured over Dean Huijsen as a centre-back signing. Si now believes Victor Osimhen is the perfect striker for Chelsea under Maresca’s system, a shift in opinion from last summer. Fans are also invited to pick their ultimate Chelsea XI to celebrate the club's 120th anniversary.
