Trevoh Chalobah replaces Andreas Christensen after Chelsea lineup mistake

Originally posted on Chelsea News | Last updated 4/24/22

Chelsea have reportedly put out the wrong team news for today’s game against West Ham, and we apparently will see Trevoh Chalobah in the mix after all.

It was a surprise to see him left out against Arsenal in midweek, and given how badly the team played in defence that day, it was even more surprising to see him left out today – especially given manager Thomas Tuchel specifically spoke ahead of the Arsenal game about how he was looking for the chance to give the youngster another chance.

Confusion here. Chalobah’s warming up with the starters despite being a sub on the official team sheet and all of Chelsea’s social announcements. Club haven’t confirmed a line-up change yet but Christensen isn’t out there, so it looks like a late switch #CFC

Chelsea have not yet corrected their official lineup, but multiple sources on Twitter are telling us to expect to see the youth academy player line up from the start tonight.

Logically it’s Andreas Christensen, who made a mistake in the Arsenal game, who appears to have dropped out. He’s off this summer to Barcelona – and we may well have seen the last of him in a Chelsea shirt.
