What's the one thing no-one is talking about?published at 09:19 22 January

Chelsea got back to winning ways on Monday against Wolves and there has been so much talk about whether they are in the title race or not as they sit fourth in the Premier League table.
However, you know your club best - so we need you to tell us the one thing that no-one is talking about at Chelsea but really should be?

A 'disaster' January or time to fix it?published at 17:50 21 January

Chelsea's slump in form which began at the end of December has been damaging to their top four chances, but it's still a long way from being fatal.
The timing of it also meant a perfect chance to use the January window for some squad surgery. There are a number of players who want to leave because they're not playing as much as they'd like, there are injuries starting to accumulate, and there are areas where the team clearly needs a little more depth.
Then there are the hangovers from the summer - the players the club weren't able to shift before the season began who are still training with the squad but don't even get B team minutes.
Most of these situations were pretty clear in December, if not long before. The first week of January could have seen a flurry of activity - a couple of sales, a couple of loan players moved around, maybe even a new signing.
Instead, we're a little over a week away from the window closing and the only significant first team moves have been the return of Trevoh Chalobah and Aaron Anselmino from their loans.
Things could yet move rapidly in these last 10 days, but even then, one can only wonder what the hold up has been. Recent games have seen so many easy points dropped - and moving early and decisively in the market would have helped bring any new faces in early enough to potentially make a difference.
The difference between a transfer happening at the start of January and the end of January is not just 30 days - it's also multiple games, many training sessions and crucial points to be won or lost. Enzo Maresca was joking when he called his January a "disaster", but it could well be heading that way if results remain poor and no significant improvements are made.
Santos enquire about Chelsea teenagerpublished at 17:21 21 January

Santos are among the clubs interested in signing Chelsea's Deivid Washington on loan until the end of the season.
The 19-year-old striker has not played in the first team since April when Mauricio Pochettino was the manager and has been seeking opportunities to further his career.
Washington joined Chelsea in a £17.2m deal from Santos in August 2023 but has struggled to make the grade for the first team, mostly lining up for the under-21s.
A return to Santos, who are believed to want to re-sign Neymar in the coming months, would appeal to Washington.
However, the Blues have just two international loan spots available, with Fifa setting a strict limit of six overseas loans per club, and it will likely lead to caution over progressing any deal.
Chelsea are also looking to offload the likes of Ben Chilwell and Carney Chukwuemeka in January.
Meanwhile, there is loan interest in Renato Veiga from both Juventus and Borussia Dortmund.
Chelsea 3-1 Wolves - the fans' verdictpublished at 11:17 21 January
11:17 21 January
We asked for your thoughts after Monday's Premier League game between Chelsea and Wolves.
Here are some of your comments:
Chelsea fans:
Mathew: We were playing really well until the first goal - and then we let Wolves get back into it with the equaliser right on half-time. However, in the second half we were better by getting those two goals in five minutes. It was great to see Trevoh Chalobah starting for us again and I thought he put in a great performance and didn't put a foot wrong. It was also good to see Tyrique George coming on. I still think we may need to recall Lesley Ugochukwu from his loan at Southampton to give Enzo Maresca more midfield depth.
Chris: Another calamitous performance from Robert Sanchez and Nicolas Jackson was not much better. When is Maresca going to sort this out? It took away from a largely better performance. We need a world-class keeper and striker soon if we are to progress!
Shane: Typical Chelsea performance and roughly what I expected this season. Over-performed at the end of the year. Missing a strong core in the side. Sanchez and Jackson are not good enough to compete for major trophies. Top four would be a great achievement in my eyes.
Wolves fans:
Kevin: Awful defending yet again. Couldn't believe it when we levelled but normal service resumed after the break. Fosun needs to wake up and get a central defender and striker in or it will be a Championship team next season.
Giorgio: I am always supportive and I can usually find positives in the hardest times. Not this time. This is a depressing performance all over the pitch. Fans are constantly hoping and asking for new players in this January window, but we have to change our mentality first. Now! The confidence is too low for a relegation fight and Vitor Pereira knows that.
Jon: Gutless. No fight, determination, tenacity or character, and unable to carry out basic defensive duties. Chelsea were far from stellar and there were opportunities on the counter-attack, but we gifted the game to them with calamitous defending. We look like a team heading for the drop. So poor.
From exile to spotlight - Chalobah shines on Blues returnpublished at 08:45 21 January

Trevoh Chalobah is often overlooked at Chelsea. So much so that he has been made available for transfer in the past three windows.
However, he slotted in seamlessly on his return to Stamford Bridge after a five-month loan spell at Crystal Palace which was cut short just last week.
During the 3-1 win over Wolves, chants for Chalobah were more common than any other from the Chelsea support.
They began from the Matthew Harding End but spread to the entire stadium after his header from a corner was turned in from close range by Noni Madueke.
Madueke admitted to apologising for poaching the goal-bound header, but added: "You have to understand, this is what they pay me for."
When Blues boss Enzo Maresca was asked about Chalobah, he said: "He was very good. We were sure he was going to help us and tonight he showed us he can do it.
"He is a strong defender and quick. He can defend in behind, forward - he is aggressive. But we already knew that and that's why we called him back."
Chalobah was equally excellent on loan at Palace, who seemed disappointed to lose him. He built a solid back-three partnership with Marc Guehi and Maxence Lacroix at Selhurst Park during his 14 appearances, and he also scored three goals.
New England boss Thomas Tuchel may also be taking note of the low-key consistency of a player he gave a debut to at Stamford Bridge.
Chalobah's consistency extends into last season, when he again went from exile to partnering Thiago Silva to a five-game winning run at the end of the campaign under Mauricio Pochettino.
'After his goal he stopped playing' - Maresca on Maduekepublished at 08:16 21 January

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca is expecting "immediate" improvement from winger Noni Madueke after Monday's victory over Wolves.
It is not the first time Maresca has taken issue with the England international this season - Madueke was dropped from Chelsea's squad against Fulham on Boxing Day for a "technical decision".
"He can improve in the last third, but probably after he scored the goal he stopped playing. This has to be one thing we need to improve immediately," Maresca said on Madueke, who scored Chelsea's third goal in the 3-1 win.
"Never happy if you score one or two - always you have to go for more.
"We just try always to help them to improve. After the goal probably he was a little bit tired, but it's the moment we need to go for more."

Enzo Maresca, speaking after Chelsea's victory over Wolves on Monday: "Winning after five games without a win, it's complicated.
"In the five games we didn't win, the performance was always there. The problem has been inside the box where we could be a little bit more clinical.
"The team was brilliant for the first 40 minutes - we scored and created chances. Then, as has happened in the past four or five games, when we conceded we lost a little bit of confidence.
"In the second half, we controlled the game and scored twice. We could have scored more."

Going into this game Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca explained that he wanted more output from his wingers to take some of the pressure and expectation off Cole Palmer and Nicholas Jackson.
Noni Madueke had already been under Maresca's microscope in December when he said the English winger "can do much more".
The 22-year-old was brilliant against Wolves.
He started really brightly and although he lacked end product in the first half his perseverance was rewarded in the second.
His cross that set up Marc Cucurella's goal was delightful and then he showed a slightly selfish streak to head home on the line for the third goal.
That is by no means a criticism. All the best players have that desire and will to score.
That action is something that should delight Maresca and offer hope to Chelsea about Madueke's long-term ceiling.

West Ham are in advanced talks to reunite Chelsea analyst Kyle Macauley with Graham Potter.
A deal is expected to be completed this week as negotiations about an exit package move in the right direction, according to sources at both clubs.
Chelsea say goalkeeping coach Ben Roberts is key at the club and won't be re-joining Potter, having been brought to Stamford Bridge by the club's former manager.
Roberts serves as both a goalkeeper coach for Enzo Maresca and advises sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart on all goalkeeping transfers.
Cole Palmer: Made in the Caribbeanpublished at 08:47 20 January

Cole Palmer is the childhood Manchester United fan who grew up idolising Wayne Rooney and honed his playing skills in the cage next to the skate ramps in Wythenshawe's Hollyhedge Park.
As a Year 6 pupil, he confidently wrote "a footballer" in his book at Gatley Primary School, Cheadle, when asked to complete the sentence "One day I'll be...".
Think Palmer and you think of a player who plays with swagger and is box office to watch.
A down to earth Manchester lad tipped for a long and successful England career whose dad says of him: "He doesn't want to be famous. He doesn't want stardom. He just wants to be a footballer."
Think Palmer and your thoughts turn to those deadpan television interviews.
Someone who went viral on social media when he said "chippy chips" are part of his favourite post-match meal, and who regularly returns to Manchester to visit his parents Jermaine - Sterry's son - and Marie, and sister Hallie. An importance placed on family that began in St Kitts.
Sutton's predictions: Chelsea v Wolvespublished at 08:04 20 January
08:04 20 January
Chelsea are not in great form but they are going to click again at some point and, if they do, they are going to wipe the floor with Wolves.
Vitor Pereira had that initial bounce as Wolves manager, but they have found it difficult in their past two league games, losing 3-0 to Nottingham Forest and Newcastle, and I don't see things getting much better for them at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea should win comfortably, while Wolves still have a lot of work to do to get out of relegation trouble. They are in the thick of that battle at the moment.

January 'a disaster' - Maresca blames transfer talkpublished at 16:22 17 January

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca says January has been "a disaster" because of ongoing speculation around his players.
He believes the transfer window, a notorious time of year for rumours and hearsay, has affected the focus of some of his players and negatively impacted their results.
Earlier this week, defender Renato Veiga was rumoured to be in discussions with Borussia Dortmund and there have been questions over the future of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall too.
Elsewhere, Ben Chilwell, Carney Chukwuemeka and Cesare Casadei have all been told they can find new clubs this month.
"On the pitch, for sure I would like to win more games, but I'm OK," said Maresca. "Off the pitch it's a disaster because [there are] so many noises that I don't think help us, but I don't think they help any club.
"It's for every club [and] every manager. When there is any noise about some player, it's not easy, because even if you think the player can be focused on us, in the end they are human beings.
"So if there is any noise about some different clubs, probably [the player] is not focused 100 per cent, so it doesn't help."

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has been speaking to the media before Monday's Premier League game against Wolves (kick-off 20:00 GMT).
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
Maresca said Cole Palmer, Levi Colwill and Romeo Lavia did not train on Friday.
On top scorer Palmer: "In the first half [of the game against Bournemouth on Tuesday], they kicked him so he didn't train today. We don't know if he will train tomorrow."
On the fitness of captain Reece James: "For Reece, it is not about if he scores goals or how many minutes, it's just to manage him. We are going to see. If he plays 45 minutes, he can be ready but we don't want to risk [him]. We don't want him to get injured again."
On the improving form of Enzo Fernandez: "He understands the game much better than the start of the season. That's normal when you start a new process and also because the way we want him to play is a bit different. We were sure he was going to score goals and give us clear chances. I think by being more clinical, he could."
On recalling defender Trevoh Chalobah from his loan at Crystal Palace: "It is quite an easy process [getting him back]. We have quite a few injuries and we were looking for a solution so we called back Trev. First of all, we know him very well - second we are sure he can [impress]."
On transfer rumours potentially distracting players: "When there is noise about any player, it is not easy because even if you are sure the player can be focused on us, he is a human being. If there is noise about a different club, [he is] probably not focused 100%. It's not [helpful]."
On opponents Wolves and if he took any lessons from their 6-2 win over them earlier this season: "They changed their manager. Now, it not the same idea. I don't think the last game can be [relevant] for us or for them. It is a new game with a new manager and a different way to attack and defend. We can be ready the way we were for the past few games to get the three points."
