Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe said everything is starting to come together for PSG while refusing to confirm a summer move to Real Madrid.
I haven't seen all the players yet to be frank - there are players injured and players away in the Africa Cup of Nations so I couldn't even say, Hodgson said.
Obviously, it's not the result what we expected but I'm still positive and I think that the next season will be better, said Varane.
Otherwise it was Middlesbrough who threatened the most in the opening half an hour, even though Blackpool goalkeeper Chris Maxwell did not have too much to do.
I did it because it had only been a year, it wasn't the right time to leave and I didn't want to. I was in a deep hole at Manchester United, things weren't going well.
Chelsea are doing well in the cups but they keep on dropping points in the league, BBC Sport football expert Mark Lawrenson said. I just feel that their manager Thomas Tuchel is sending out the wrong message when he talks about
For Trent, I think it's right that he doesn't play constantly and for Virgil as well. If you are in our squad, you are a good football player.
There is always a feeling when watching Chelsea that while their defence is so good, they have not really fired up front consistently.
That has not deterred the faith of Moyes, who believes after two spells inside the top four already this season, it could be third time lucky for his side before the end of the campaign.
That will also be a factor in whether to go for in-form Maddison this week. If you want to go for more of a differential on the Leicester front then maybe look at Harvey Barnes, Youri Tielemans or Ademola Lookman.
They're gone. You can tell with their performances. They're on their holidays, they've switched off.

Rangnick did not agree with the claim that his team panicked after Jacob Ramsey’s goal went in at Villa Park but they were not composed or experienced enough to withstand the inevitable onslaught which followed.
“It’s one way forward,” he said. “We tried a 4-1-4-1 formation today because we tried a 4-4-2 against them in the first match which gave us an advantage and then they reacted to it in the second match so we thought maybe it could be an approach to give the players a new solution.
“This is how I’ve always seen injuries, it’s nothing new,” Simeone said. “The difference is this time he had an injury. Hopefully he can recover as soon as possible.
You're probably right in saying that could be the end of his season, he said, but there's a squad here that are here to play; that's why you have a squad for people to step up.
Rayan Ait-Nouri should have done better when Daniel Podence's brilliant piece of trickery on the side of the area offered enough space to roll a pass into the wing-back's path, which he fired wide.
However, seemingly out of nowhere, Ramsey has gone up several notches, embracing Premier League life with a fearlessness and self-confidence that has seen him become a firm favourite under Gerrard.
Team news, stats and prediction ahead of Liverpool vs Brentford in the Premier League on Sunday; kick-off 2pm.
While their Premier League counterparts dream of takeovers by billionaires, Frankfurt - the Eagles - want to soar another way.
A player taking a pass in his stride while running at speeds that seem startling. The spatial awareness to shift the ball away from an opponent with a deft first touch.
There wasn’t such consensus over Giggs’s performance. He was a threat, if an erratic one, and Ferguson heard the left-back Tarnat call for help on a number of occasions. Ferguson argues the strain of repelling Giggs contributed significantly to the fatigue which suddenly overwhelmed Bayern at the end of the match. Giggs doesn’t necessarily agree. “I did as he asked,” said Giggs in the Daily Mail earlier this year. “I kept going at Tarnat but kept losing the ball. To be honest, I was s**t that night.”
“As you can see, I got a little injured, hopefully it’s not too bad,” Pogba said in a video he posted on Instagram.
But in the second half we had more personality to play more in the lines and the movement from everyone was excellent.

Stefanos Tsitsipas is worried about his participation in the Australian Open because of a nagging elbow problem.
United were penned in, and the pressure only eased after Christian Norgaard hooked Jensen's pull-back over De Gea's crossbar.
It was no more than the hosts deserved and the only real negative of the opening 45 minutes was they didn’t add to their lead, with Martinelli twice going close to grabbing a second.
Chelsea had a request to have their 0-0 draw versus Wolves on 19 December rejected by the Premier League.
Maybe an orange. INCIDENT: Thiago is already on a yellow card when challenging Kevin De Bruyne. He gets the free-kick himself first - could this have been a second booking for him on another day?
Liverpool will of course remain big favourites and will want to show that the setback against West Ham was merely a small bump in the road as they chase down Chelsea and Manchester City.

He is a manager who expects loyalty and hard work from his players, who expects far-reaching powers at the club he works for, and who promotes youth over ego.
