An international round-up, patience for Mudryk - and will Tuchel's Bayern poach Barry?
Description
He's dodged the Spurs bullet...
The Athletic's Chelsea experts Simon Johnson and Liam Twomey join Matt Davies-Adams to sift through the main Blues news as the international break rumbles on.
Thomas Tuchel has a new job - thankfully not in North London - but is he poaching one of his former coaching staff to join him at Bayern Munich? And just how tantilising would a UCL semi-final showdown with him be for the club and Graham Potter?
There was disappointment in the WSL for Chelsea Women who fell to a 2-0 defeat at Manchester City but still have destiny in their own hands in the league - and Champions League where they have a one-goal advantage going into Thursday night's second leg with Lyon.
We take a look at home some of the senior men have got on on international duty including another injury worry for Reece James, the confusion over Mason Mount's call-up - and the ongoing frustrations for Mykhailo Mudryk and his form.
We'll be back next Wednesday to reflect on PLENTY of action including Aston Villa, Liverpool and Lyon!
