We're sorry N'golo

You've (not) got a Freund in me... Matt Davies-Adams has got Simon Johnson and Sam Parkin in tow to mull over the latest Blues news. We begin with the ongoing search for a sporting director, with target Christoph Freund seemingly committing his future to RB Salzburg. There's the latest on the search to fill the role - plus the unpleasant business surrounding the sacking of commercial director Damian Willoughby. Chelsea Women are looking to get back on track after their shock defeat by Liverpool when they face Manchester City on Sunday in the WSL - we take a look at that game. Plus, Matt devises a fiendish five-round quiz to beat the international break blues...to varying degrees of success! We'll be back on Monday to round up the weekend's action and to take a look at how the men's international players have got on across the globe. Learn more about your ad choices.
