It’s Saturday morning and we’re just minutes away from Chelsea’s game against Liverpool kicking off, yet there is suddenly a rush of manager information coming out.

We just noted that Italian transfer insider Nicolo Schira had written that Crystal Palace are making strong moves to sign up Chelsea manager target Andoni Iraola. But that’s not all he’s come out with this morning.

Chelsea and Xabi Alonso getting closer after positive first talks

The far more positive news for Chelsea is that Schira says that there have been “positive first talks” between the Blues and Xabi Alonso, the dream manager candidate for most fans. Alonso has apparently “given his availability” for a “long term project.”

It still seems like something of a pipe dream given the mess our club is in and the competition we’d face for Alonso, but bit by bit it’s looking more positive. We would still like to see one of the most reliable journalists on the Chelsea beat confirm this, but the signs are good.
