Summary

On this week's episode of Chelsea Mike'd Up, Michael Ryan Ruiz and Chris Wittyngham (12:00) talk to one Billy Gilmour to serenade him in song, chronicle his at times surreal path to the Chelsea 1st team, and joke about how he uses himself in FIFA 20. The guys also break down the state of football in Europe, from how cancellations might get Hakim Ziyech to Chelsea faster (2:00), to how the Premier League is coming along in their project to bring games back (5:10). They also discuss the unfortunate reasons Salomon Kalou is in the news (29:40), Chelsea connections to a pair of Bundesliga strikers including Erling Håland (31:00), and ESPN's Bill Barnwell's 50 worst Premier League transfers ever list (34:45).
