Then Rob Wilson, a professor of applied sports finance at UCFB, and former Man City defender Nedum Onuoha try to unpick the situation at Chelsea, where manager Enzo Maresca insists there's 'no mess', despite a squad of 40+ eligible players at his disposal, and a number of huge names including Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell frozen out.
