After defeating Gent, Panathinaikos, and Noah, Chelsea will want to continue the winning momentum we have built up in the competition when we play Heidenheim tomorrow night.

21 players boarded their trip to Germany for our penultimate away game of the league round of this competition after head coach Enzo Maresca and his team practiced at Cobham this morning.

Below are some of the nicest pictures taken at the beginning of their voyage!

Christopher Nkunku receives a telegram from Enzo Maresca regarding Chelsea’s January departure

The 27-year-old, who was acquired from RB Leipzig for £52 million last year, has had difficulty finding playing time this season and has only started one of Chelsea’s 12 Premier League games.

Nkunku is reportedly dissatisfied with his circumstances at Chelsea and is weighing his options before January.

Although Maresca is certain that the French forward will play more during the winter, he maintains that Chelsea’s assault still needs “balance.”Joao Felix recently played in the Premier League against Leicester, and Christopher will undoubtedly feature in the league as well. On Wednesday night, Maresca remarked.

But since we have a lot of players, we make an effort to split the minutes with everyone. Even though it’s not always feasible, the goal is to keep them all satisfied.

“We are still in the end of November and have a ton of games left, especially in December, so now is not the time or place to think about January.””No, not at all,” Maresca said when asked if Nkunku had told him that he was unhappy at Chelsea.

Christo didn’t mention he wasn’t happy when we chatted a few days earlier.

prefer many other players, he would undoubtedly prefer to play more minutes.

However, as I mentioned earlier, we have a lot of games, especially in December. Joao Felix, Enzo Fernandez, and Benoit Badiashile all played in the most recent match against Leicester.

Since the beginning, I have maintained that there aren’t two teams in my opinion. Players from the Premier League can play in the Conference League, and players from the Conference League can play in the Premier League; the team is just one. Leicester has been proven wrong.

When asked if Nkunku is still in his plans, Maresca replied, “Yes, absolutely.”

The issue with Chris isn’t a problem; rather, it’s the same problem and the same thing we’ve said about Joao numerous times. Whether you play alongside Christo, Joao, Cole [Palmer], Noni [Madueke], Jadon [Sancho], or anyone else, who is defending?

Because they are skilled at attacking rather than protecting. We need balance even though we want and love them.

We tried Joao and Cole together in our most recent game. Because we have so many games, we should be able to attempt Christo and Cole and Christo and Joao in the next game or soon.

However, I really believe Christo should remain with us. I don’t think I’ll let him go in January.

“Christo’s performance during preseason, when he was playing in his role as a No. 10 between the striker between the lines, was probably his best moment with us.”

Then, ever since the season began, he has been playing for us as a No. 9. In the first Premier League match, he started as a winger versus City, even though we know that’s not his best position. Christo’s best position is between the lines as a No. 10, but Cole is playing there.

You need balance, but we won’t be playing as many games with Cole and Christo or Cole and Joao as we did the other day.

We are currently concentrating on this game, so we may not know, but Leicester’s plan won’t be the same as Aston Villa’s.

They will all undoubtedly play games because they are all excellent players. However, not all games
