Kepa nominated for save of the month award


Kepa Arrizabalaga has once again been nominated for the Premier League Save of the Month award, the third time this season.

The Spaniard receives his nomination in February for his important stop to deny Fulham’s Andreas Pereira’s strike in the first half of our 0-0 draw with our London neighbours at the beginning of the month.

Joao Palhinha had originally won the ball inside the Chelsea half before fizzing a pass towards the Brazilian, with a bounce of the ball enabling him to sweetly hit a shot towards Kepa’s net. It looked to be heading for the bottom right-hand corner, if not for Kepa’s strong wrist.

Kepa is one of five nominees for the award, which is a new introduction for the 2022/23 season, facing competition twice from David De Gea (Manchester United), as well as Alisson Becker (Liverpool), Jordan Pickford (Everton) and Aaron Ramsdale (Arsenal).

Kepa won the award in October and was nominated last month.

You have until midday on Monday 6 March to cast your vote for the Premier League’s February Save of the Month, with the winner being announced at 2pm on Friday 10 March.

Magical display and goal from Nicolas Jackson that shows he's Chelsea's next Didier Drogba.

Image
 Nicolas Jackson was on target for the Blues in their 4-1 trashing of Burnley yesterday.  Raheem Sterling takes the ball from midfield and turns around on his marker to leave him biting dust. Once in the final third he finds Cole Palmer in the box, who calmly lays it to Nicolas Jackson right in front of goal. The striker does very well in controlling the ball, adjusting his footing, and striking it for Chelsea’s fourth goal against Burnley. Comparisons have been made with Nicolas Jackson's stats for the Blues and that of Legend, Didier Drogba. Jackson's first goal for the club was a Drogba-esque one.  However, this performance and display from Jackson vs Burnley will convince you that he's just Chelsea's next hit striker after Didier Drogba: VIDEO: Chelsea may have just found their next Didier Drogba in Nicolas Jackson.

Onana, who only signed for Everton last summer, was one of the Toffees' best players in the 2022/23 season and played a starring role in sustaining their Premier League status. After an impressive first half of the season in England, there was dialogue between Chelsea and the 21-year-old's entourage but he remained at Goodison Park and Enzo Fernandez was signed instead. Now, with Mauricio Pochettino seeking a new midfielder to bolster his squad ahead of next season, it has been reported that the Blues have revived their interest in the former Lille midfielder...
