Report: Chelsea and Michael Olise have personal terms agreed upon.

Michael Olise has reportedly reached a personal agreement with Chelsea to join his old club, according to reports coming out of France this morning.

Earlier in the transfer window, we were rumored to be interested in the 21-year-old, but Christopher Nkunku’s injury presumably (re-)inspired these efforts. While currently injured, Olise is anticipated to make a full recovery within a month.

Even though there hasn’t been an agreement with Crystal Palace yet, doing so would only require paying their asking price, which appears to be more than £30 million. We’re willing to spend a lot of money, so I don’t think the fee will stop us in this case either, given our spending habits.

With all the space the Liverpool back line will inevitably leave behind them, Mudryk could have a lot of fun playing against them. Mudryk, who wants to succeed at the Bridge, would be the ideal candidate to launch a counterattack, which could be extremely important.

Similarly, Nicolas Jackson, who cost about £30 million to sign with the team earlier this summer, has already made it abundantly clear to his teammates that he wants the ball passed over the top to him so he can enter the play from behind. Jackson had a fantastic preseason and displayed his all-around talent, but he has a knack for playing on the last defender’s shoulder and snatching up errant passes.

On Sunday, either of these attackers could pose serious difficulties for Liverpool. The rest of the team must attempt to withstand what is anticipated to be a ferocious press from the opponents at Stamford Bridge.

what Mauricio Pochettino did to Chelsea supporters during yesterday’s game between Liverpool

According to reports, Mauricio Pochettino tried his hardest to get the Chelsea supporters at Stamford Bridge to make more noise in the waning seconds of the game.

As the Blues pushed for a victory, the West London crowd reportedly responded to his efforts with a rousing cheer, according to The Athletic.

Pochettino visited Stamford Bridge yesterday for the first time in his capacity as the home manager, and based on the response he received, it appears that fans are extremely enthusiastic about his appointment.

These emotions will only have grown stronger after the performance his team put on against Liverpool.

The Blues felt like they were most likely to come away from the opening weekend with a victory, despite only leaving with a point.

There were a few particularly strong performances. Reece James, the new captain, and Ben Chilwell, the vice-captain, both demonstrated their abilities and what they can bring, especially moving forward.

Chelsea fans were energized by Pochettino.

Axel Disasi also scored on his debut for the Blues, who lined up in a different system than they had in preseason. His inclusion was perhaps a surprise given how they had previously used a different system.

Despite this, Enzo Fernandez was unquestionably the star, playing a more important role than he had during the previous season.

Pochettino was likely impressed by what he witnessed. On a competitive stage, he also gave six players their Chelsea debuts.

Next weekend, when they travel across the capital to play West Ham United, he will be hoping to be able to give out another one.

It was previously reported that they had finally reached an agreement to sign Moises Caicedo from Brighton.

He will hopefully be able to play on Sunday after having his medical today.
