The European Super League project never went away and England's two refuseniks now have cause to change their minds.

All that seems certain is there may just be a plan in mind where throwing someone else’s money around to make noise, heat and light is entirely sensible, a little puffing of the brand before the big step-change. And Chelsea have a new co-chairman who seems very much up for swinging from the chandelier and trying to drink the chocolate fountain. The final episode is yet to be written. And secondly Chelsea have a role to play. In the meantime the problem our script faces is that its plot is in the process of being mimicked and surpassed by real-life events. The future is being divvied up by hungry hands, between a I want him to help me move house, turning up unannounced and knowing how to work the boiler, then leaving just as promptly to put in an hour at the hedgehog sanctuary. What does seem certain is that Potter is clearly the most sensible person in this entire Chelsea model. For now we have the first shoots of a Potter revival. Except, something has started to feel different, and feeling is very important in football. Plus I can reveal that a private-sector version of this process has been successfully trialled on the periphery of English football. Six years ago the German military launched Project Cassandra, a programme designed to predict disasters and black swan events by getting novelists, poets and hacks to write stories about them.

[neither of them firm favourites to remain at the club past this season](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/transfer-news/chelsea-potter-key-summer-transfer-26175419). Slonina's tall frame makes him appear slight and adaptation to the league is common so there will be no rush to chuck him in. It isn't impossible that he is challenging for appearances, even as a backup, next season though and his latest video on Twitter is an indication to Potter of his work ethic. For £10m he is clearly valued but faces a tough test to displace either Edouard Mendy or current first choice Kepa Arrizabalga. Graham Potter has been sent a clear message by one of his stars ahead of his team's game against Everton on Saturday.
