Joe Cole always has a good take on Chelsea’s situation, and today he weighed in on their goalkeeping situation.

Robert Sanchez was dropped for the Blues’ game against Aston Villa, and the expectation is that Filip Jorgensen will stay in for today’s game. It’s the latest incident in a logo saga which has seen Sanchez repeatedly fail to impress.

Cole thinks the end may be nigh, despite some improved form this season.

Sanchez ready to be replaced when a top option is on the market says Cole

“It’s hard with Robert Sanchez because he’s performed well at times,” Cole said in quotes picked up by Goal.com.

“He came out of the starting line-up to [Filip] Jorgensen the other day. So it doesn’t look like Liam Rosenior has settled on a number one as much as he says he ‘doesn’t have a number one’. That’s just how he operates.”

“When a goalkeeper like James Trafford becomes available, then Chelsea may have to strike. He is improving is Sanchez, but I still think there’s another level. Is it going to be there in time for Chelsea to kick on and be challenging for the Champions League and competing with the Arsenal and Man City’s of the world?

“Liverpool have got Allison, Man City have got Donnarumma and Arsenal have got David Raya. That’s the level of goalkeeper Chelsea need. Sanchez can get there, but can he get there quick enough?”

It will be very interesting to see who is on the teamsheet tonight.

In other news…

Andrey Santos is also likely to feature tonight, and he’s been speaking about how his game has developed.
