Watching Alejandro Garnacho walk on to the field at Wembley with four minutes to go in the FA Cup Final told us much about Chelsea. Garnacho cost £40million from Manchester United. They thought it was a coup and‚ as so often is the case at Stamford Bridge‚ they were wrong. Four minutes to save a cup final. That kind of sums it up. If temporary coach Calum McFarlane really believed Garnacho had it in him to write Chelsea's name on the trophy‚ he may just have given him a little longer than that. As for Garnacho himself‚ he is still only 21. So we must be careful. Older and wiser and better players than he have been spat out of the Chelsea threshing machine. None of this is his fault.

The Blues are on the hunt for another new boss after sacking Liam Rosenior‚ with a new permanent manager to be appointed at the end of the season - Calum McFarlane is taking temporary charge until then. But he is not the only name being studied by the Blues. Fulham boss Marco Silva is among the contenders as is former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso‚ who was sacked by Real Madrid in January just six months after joining as head coach from Bayer Leverkusen. Both have experience in English football.

Red vs Blue. North vs South. It's a footballing staple as old as time. But as Chelsea face off against Liverpool at Anfield at lunchtime on Saturday‚ both teams have flattered to deceive this season. Arne Slot's side‚ sitting fourth‚ will look to consolidate their Champions League credentials‚ whereas Chelsea - under interim boss Calum McFarlane - will hope they can revive their dwindling hopes of Europe. The Blues find themselves ninth after a 3-1 defeat at home by Nottingham Forest condemned them to their sixth consecutive league loss. So what better way to commemorate the battle of the underachievers than a combined XI? Stats gurus over at SofaScore give the lowdown on two teams steeped in mediocrity - with Chelsea winning the player count by seven players to four in a 3-2-4-1 formation...

Legendary Chelsea captain John Terry has confirmed he has not received a call to form part of interim boss Calum McFarlane's staff after Liam Rosenior's sacking. McFarlane was placed in charge of the Blues until the end of this season on Wednesday‚ starting with the FA Cup semi-final against Leeds on Sunday. It followed Chelsea's hierarchy dismissing Rosenior after just 106 days in charge‚ having overseen a run of five straight defeats in the Premier League without scoring.

John Terry has admitted that he was left 'frustrated' after being overlooked for a role assisting Chelsea interim boss Calum McFarlane during his brief stint in the dugout last month and questioned whether the club's ownership or sporting directors had ruled him out deliberately. The Blues legend holds a part-time consultancy role within Chelsea's academy set-up‚ working alongside McFarlane with the under-21s and under-18s. But the former club captain was not given a role when McFarlane was given an important internal promotion following the departure of Enzo Maresca‚ which in turn led to facing off with Pep Guardiola at the Etihad.
