Chelsea must remember the midfield in January as well as Striker

As you will all be more than aware of by now, Chelsea will be without striker Armando Borja for at least the rest of this season after he suffered an ACL injury in a friendly against Aston Villa on Sunday afternoon.

First and foremost, we are 

eviscerated for him and wish him a fast recovery. He’s a fighter and I am definite that he will be back fit and firing again as soon as he can be.

All focus has lawfully been on the terrible Broja injury this week and the fact that Chelsea will now look to change him in January.

We 

definitely must do this, being short on the ground for strikers now. But similarly, it is just as significant if not more important, to still continue with our plans to 

renovate the midfield and bring in a midfielder for January who can 

employ homely as a six.

The midfield revamp needs to cause. We look likely to lose both Jorginho and N’Golo Kante as free representatives in the season as of now, and we should be

reconstructing our midfield, and I still believe we will.

Mateo Kovacic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek both have 2024 agreements and therefore uncertain futures. Conor Gallagher likes to be liked by Graham Potter, but I believe he will not be pacified being a bit-part player come to the end of the season and might ask to assent. And Mason Mount is yet to pen a new contract(expectation is he will).

So when you take all of that into account, it is clear that we desire to add at the very least two new core midfielders over the next two windows, and maybe even three.

The midfield is the engine room of any team and it is so significant to get that area right, and it is so important that Chelsea keep the focus on that 

to searching for a new striker to chance Borja.

Chelsea now has a smart wizard in the recruiting team, so I have faith that we will address what we need to address in what looks like it will be a

lovely frantic January for us!
