Chelsea’s Blues
Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta has described the club’s recent plight as his worst period with the West Londoners.
The Blues’ woes continued at Arsenal on Tuesday night, succumbing to their sixth straight loss in all competitions.
A 3-1 defeat at the Emirates leaves Frank Lampard’s outfit in 12th place, nine points from the drop zone with five games remaining.
Azpilicueta said: “It’s the worst run since I’ve been at the club.
“We’re not in a good position. The reality is what we have now. We didn’t expect to be here but that’s where we are.
“We have five games left. We have to show a positive energy and win games.
“It’s tough for everybody. We are all disappointed. We have to take responsibility and that’s the only way.”
Messi on the move
Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni has offered his thoughts on Lionel Messi’s future.
Scaloni guided Messi and Co to World Cup glory last year, but La Albiceleste’s talismanic captain has since hit trouble with his club Paris Saint-Germain.
Messi fuelled rumours of a summer exit with an unauthorised trip to Saudi Arabia on Sunday.
But his national team coach said: “His future is managed by him.
“I don’t know what will happen in the future, if he will return to Spain or if he will stay in France or go to another country. Any coach would like to have him.
“I hope he continues to be happy on a pitch, regardless of what club he is at. I think that’s what’s really important.
“He is a player who moves a lot and everyone enjoys watching him play.”
