With Thomas Tuchel, Graham Potter, and Frank Lampard all struggling with success, the Blues will be relieved to see the end of the 2022/23 season. Chelsea will finish outside the top ten in the Premier League for the first time since 1996.
Tonight’s journey to Old Trafford could be the last chance for a handful of players to impress the club’s hierarchy before the summer transfer window opens. Individuals would want to make an early impact at Stamford Bridge with Mauricio Pochettino due to take over in the summer.
With a win over Manchester United, Chelsea will leapfrog Crystal Palace into 11th place in the rankings. They will have to face Erik Ten Hag’s side without Mason Mount, Reece James, Ben Chilwel, and Benoit Badiashile due to injury.
“We don’t have any returning players.” “Mount, James, and Chiily [Ben Chilwell] will not play,” Lampard stated on Wednesday. “Benoit [Badiashile] we know is out, we’re back to how we were.”
Badiashile will miss the rest of the season after suffering a catastrophic groin injury in training last week, but he will be back in time for the start of the next season.
“It’s a big blow for him, and I’m disappointed for him,” Lampard admitted. “He came here and impressed me, and I was very happy with him in the games before he got injured.”He’s going to be an excellent player for this team. “It’s an unfortunate, complicated injury that will take months rather than weeks to heal.”
“I hope for him that the timing of it over the summer means he won’t miss any games and will come back stronger.”
