Joao Felix's Chelsea debut vs Fulham: Eden Hazard similarity, Kai ... (Football.London)

Joao Felix was perhaps a surprise inclusion in the Chelsea XI for their game against Fulham on Thursday evening but the Portugal international only played ...

[Chelsea](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc) started the game on top and it looked as if the players had been given a much-needed boost by the arrival of [Felix](https://www.football.london/all-about/joao-felix) just over 30 hours before. Potter will be missing his new signing, who was brought in to try and change Chelsea's fortunes in offensive areas, for games against Crystal Palace, Liverpool and Fulham in the next few weeks. Felix started the half well; picking up the ball deep and producing a couple of really nice passes. Felix, in his 58-minute debut, provided everything Chelsea have been missing (bar a goal). [the club announced the loan signing](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/news/breaking-chelsea-joao-felix-atletico-25940372) of the 23-year-old attacker, [Graham Potter](https://www.football.london/all-about/graham-potter) threw him straight into the team for the west London derby. [Tim Ream](https://www.football.london/all-about/tim-ream), nutmegging him in the process before finding [Havertz](https://www.football.london/all-about/kai-havertz), whose shot was blocked. The reaction wasn't there and it of course had an impact on Felix. Felix looked so energetic, quick on the ball and while running off it, and was clearly full of confidence. Not only did it leave Chelsea with a really difficult challenge with 10 men, it spoiled what was a really encouraging debut from Felix. [Felix started alongside Kai Havertz](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/news/confirmed-chelsea-team-vs-fulham-25965060) in what looked like a 3-5-2 formation for the visitors at Craven Cottage. He drew two yellow cards in the opening 14 minutes at Craven Cottage – just to show Chelsea supporters, those who didn't know, how he played. The directness is a rarity with the Blues right now.

How much did Joao Felix cost Chelsea? Probably gazillions as ... (Football365.com)

Joao Felix cost £13m, £14m, £15m or is he a £100million-plus player? And how long can Graham Potter avoid the sack when Chelsea fans are making their ...

As Miguel Delaney writes in The Independent: ‘Some with knowledge of the board believe they are prepared to miss out on European football next season. Joao Felix is only a ‘£100million-plus player’ if Chelsea paid that figure or if any club would pay that figure now. They are paying a loan fee and wages regardless of whether he is on the pitch or not. It will have exactly zero financial repercussions. It will have literally no financial impact on Chelsea, fella. But he didn’t sign on loan for £14m, did he?

Chelsea boss Graham Potter to lose Joao Felix for the three games ... (Planet Sport)

Graham Potter believes Joao Felixs red card and subsequent three-match suspension is a big blow for Chelsea as they look to revive their disappointing ...

"It's not like we've been over training or anything like that, we just need to get to the bottom of it." He added: "The nature of them (the injuries), it's like there's not even a pattern, it's different problems, so it's tricky. "Sometimes it's difficult when you come in halfway through the season, to know how they've happened, but I can sense it's a bit of bad luck and knowing how we can go forward and how we can improve."

[Liverpool](http://Liverpool.com) to improve their midfield, but that does not mean they should not try it. Just like at Anfield, the problems for Chelsea are mounting up. Félix came in and made an instant impact, right up until the moment he was sent off. At the age of just 23, however, there is plenty of time left in his career should he choose his next move wisely.
