Mauricio Pochettino will have final say on Chelsea transfers as the club hone a more collaborative approach going forward keno
While there are set to be more signings in January despite a £1bn-plus outlay over the last three windows, the aim is to be far more targeted in the new year keno
The club's much-discussed American owners felt a total overhaul of the squad was due on arriving, as they sought to reshape it to have a much younger and leaner profile keno
That create a bloated group for a period of time that sometimes felt too large for the dressing room, but the feeling is that gradual trading has left them closer to an ideal profile keno
The target now is to fill any remaining positional gaps or depth to the team, so as to maximise Pochettino's tactics keno

The model is described as more like Manchester City's, where the manager will identify the type of tactical profile he needs, then the staff come up with suitable names, and the manager then decides on who to go for keno
Chelsea are expected to be one of the clubs that go for Brentford's Ivan Toney in the window, as a number nine would still be preferred, with Nicolas Jackson and Armando Broja yet to fully convince as a long-term option keno
Although there is still a sense of seeing how the squad settles after one more international window keno

“It is really, truly, a historic day,” smiled Alan Gilpin, CEO of World Rugby keno
He would go on to use the word ‘historic’ another three or four times in the following few minutes of his press conference keno
After years of wrangling – 16 years, according to Gilpin, since discussions about how to sort out rugby’s messy global calendar first took place in the salubrious surroundings of Woking, Surrey (don’t worry, the location wasn’t the reason it took more than a decade and a half to reach an agreement, a chuckling Gilpin assured everyone) – World Rugby had finally come up with a solution that will transform rugby “for the many, not the few” ushering in a “new era of opportunity, certainty and growth for the game keno
”It’s fair to say they were pretty pleased with the outcome of the seemingly endless negotiations keno
Compromises had been made and it wasn’t perfect, stressed Gilpin and World Rugby chairman Bill Beaumont, but rugby would be “more relevant and more accessible to more people around the world keno
”The big announcement earlier in the day saw the sport’s governing body unveil a new global calendar that includes the creation of a two-tier men’s competition called the Nations Championship to be played biennially from 2026 keno
The top tier will be the Six Nations (England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland, Wales), the four Rugby Championship teams (Argentina, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa) and two additional teams, likely to be Japan and Fiji keno
The second tier will feature 12 further countries with promotion and relegation on the table from 2030, meaning 2032 is the earliest one of those teams could feature in the top tier keno
World Rugby have acknowledged, publicly at least, a desire to grow rugby globally keno
At the moment, the sport is almost untouchably huge in a couple of countries (think New Zealand and South Africa), holds its own in a few more (UK, Ireland, Japan), is fighting a losing battle for oxygen in a crowded sporting marketplace in others (Australia, Italy) and seen as a largely niche oddity in plenty (USA, Canada) keno
But this Rugby World Cup has also highlighted plenty of countries where there’s a huge opportunity for growth keno
From South America, Uruguay and debutants Chile have impressed on the pitch, the passion for rugby in Georgia shows no sign of abating and Portugal have lit up the tournament with their dynamic play while also pulling off the huge upset of beating Fiji keno
With growing interest in places like Netherlands and Belgium, Europe is surely an area World Rugby are targeting growth keno

Even the new Pacific Nations Cup also announced today, featuring Canada, Fiji, Japan, Samoa, Tonga and USA, bizarrely excludes Uruguay and Chile (who qualified ahead of USA and Canada for the World Cup, remember) keno
But what all these “tier two” nations really need, as shown by the World Cup, is a more regular opportunity to face the big boys keno
Since stunning Fiji at the 2019 World Cup, Uruguay played exactly one fixture against a “tier one” team before this tournament, yet still impressed against France and Italy in the pool stage keno
Imagine what they could do with more regular access to the top teams keno
However, World Rugby have come up with an answer to the wrong question keno
They have essentially provided the solution to the problem men’s international keno football had keno
Before 2018, the space keno between World Cups and European Championships was filled by a combination of largely one-sided qualifiers and meaningless friendlies keno
San Marino would get thumped 8-0 by Germany in a Euros qualifier that helped neither side, then the Germans would play a no-stakes friendly that held little interest for the wider public keno
The big teams weren’t playing each other enough and the smaller nations were rarely in winnable games against similarly-sized teams keno
For example, England and Italy – two keno football powerhouses – didn’t play each other at all keno between 2002 and 2012 keno
Thus, Uefa created the Nations League keno
Although not perfect – it was derided for the complexity of its league structure and provided a slightly unnecessary additional security blanket for the big European nations trying to qualify for major tournaments – it eliminated the meaningless friendly and gave countries both big and small the opportunity to play competitive games against nations of a similar rank keno
Win-win keno
Uruguay showed their quality during the Rugby World Cup (AP)But rugby has the opposite problem to keno football keno
The big teams already play each other too often not too rarely keno
The history of the Six Nations and Rugby Championship as annual traditions give those events special status but, for example, England and Australia played each other 11 times in the two cycles keno between the 2015 and 2023 World Cups keno
Familiarity breeds contempt and at some point, a fixture begins to lose its lustre keno
Would a couple of those fixtures being against Samoa, Georgia or Portugal not have been more beneficial and interesting for all parties?With the unions desperate to balance the books, their desire to have the ‘bigger draw’ of facing a name brand might be understandable but this is where World Rugby need to show some teeth and live up to their duty to grow the game keno
Instead, the Nations Championship appears to guarantee another decade of regular England vs Australia matches before any of the tier-two teams may get a shot, if they can earn promotion that is keno
World Rugby’s announcement does include a line promising more “crossover” fixtures keno between the tiers in the years where there isn’t a Nations Championship but they could provide no clarity on what these fixtures would be and confirmed no agreements have been signed keno
They have insisted that there will be a 50 per cent aggregate increase, which would mean a rise from 18 to 27 games for second-tier teams against the top 12, although it is unclear how these fixtures will be allocated or arranged keno
The expansion of the men’s Rugby World Cup from 20 to 24 teams is a step in the right direction and the governing body should be commended for making that move but, sadly, the four years keno between tournaments appear to have the smaller nations getting a door slammed in their face keno
World Rugby are right that the sport should be for the many not the few but this new competition seems to be sending it in the opposite direction keno
