“Thankfully I was saying nice things.”

The likelihood of reporters saying nice things about Chelsea has increased after a more positive run of results for the club.

Chelsea returned from their winter break with a 1-0 victory over local rivals Fulham.

They followed that up with a 6-1 thrashing of Middlesbrough in the second leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final.

They then drew 0-0 with Aston Villa on the weekend to earn an FA Cup replay.

Sky Sports presenter Dharmesh Sheth responded to the post with: “hahaha brilliant!!”

A Chelsea fan also responded with a laughing emoji.

A third said: “Did you interview him after this?” Alongside three laughing emojis.

Chelsea have the chance to continue a recent upturn in form when they travel to Liverpool on Wednesday.

Their reverse fixture at Stamford Bridge ended in a 1-1 draw, which will give Blues fans hope against the league leaders.

Chelsea’s form in the league generally this season has been less than stellar.

The club currently sit in ninth place – although they are just one point off a Europa Conference League spot.
