'Top five by default' - fans on Champions League chances
We asked you to tell us in one sentence why Chelsea will qualify for the Champions League.Here are some of your repliesFahey: Our remaining 10 fixtures should result in 19-21 points, making 68-70 points overall. I think 65 will be enough to get fifth place.Matthew: Chelsea will qualify for the Champions League not on merit but because everyone else's form is also sketchy. Over the last six games we have somehow had better form than all around us other than Brighton and others' inability to get results over the line will get us top five by default.Mohammed: Given the fixtures, Chelsea should get another 16 or 17 points from the 10 remaining matches.John: We'll qualify for Champions League because key players — including Nico Jackson — will come back from injury, Cole Palmer will find his form, and Enzo Maresca will loosen his system a bit and let these guys play the way they want to play.Naturally, some of you did not agree with the premise, so here's a flavour of the other side...Patrick: They won't! We have blown it in my opinion.Colin: They won't qualify for the Champions League!Richard: We are still well placed to finish in the top five but much of this is due to inconsistent results from teams around us like Manchester City, Newcastle and Aston Villa, but if they (or Brighton) all improve, Chelsea might miss out completely. That's not acceptable.Chris: As much as we all want it, I don't think that we will get CL qualification this season because we are not good enough - far too flaky, not decisive enough going forward and very leaky at the back.

Russo off to Villa! Alessia's brother Giorgio is Love Island bombshell
Giorgio Russo has joined the ITV2 reality show, based in a Majorcan villa, as one of four new 'bombshells'. Alessia has begun preparations for the European Championship, with England taking on France in their first game on July 5, but Giorgio may not be able to see his sister in action as he begins his journey on the TV show. A post shared by G I O 🤙🏼 (@giorgiorusso__) The Lionesses have gathered at St George's Park for their Euros camp and most of them found out the news on Monday morning. Le Tissier admitted she does not watch the show but will tune in to see Alessia's brother. She said: 'That's the only question I've been asked so far! I walked into SGP (St George's Park) this morning and Alessia just went like that (showed the phone about her brother heading into the villa). 'I was so shocked. I was so buzzing for Giorgio. He's such a lovely guy and such a great family, so hopefully he does well out there and he enjoys himself. 'It's cool. I haven't watched it yet, but I'm going to watch it now.' Giorgio was over in Portugal to cheer his sister on in the Champions League final as Arsenal beat Barcelona to lift the trophy but will not be present to do the same in Switzerland if he lasts long enough on the show. Alessia's Arsenal team-mate Beth Mead said all the players will be sitting together to watch the show. Mead told Sky Sports: 'I was excited for him. I love Giorgio, he's a good boy and I'm looking forward to seeing what he gets up to in the villa. 'We're all going to sit together tonight and watch the 'bombshell' bombshell, so excited for that one.' Another Lionesses team-mate, Grace Clinton, joked about Giorgio missing the Euros. She said: 'I will be watching, I will definitely be watching that. 'We're going to have it on in the meeting room tonight. I'm only joking. No, it's exciting, it's funny. 'I think Alessia finds it funny. He clearly won't be coming to Switzerland I take it?'
