Danny Drinkwater Exclusive: What Really Happened During My Time At Chelsea

Former Leicester, Chelsea and Manchester United midfielder Danny Drinkwater joins Rio and Joel to discuss coming through at the club when Rio was a senior pro, the partnership he enjoyed with N’Golo Kante at Leicester and gives his unfiltered take on his time at Chelsea.

Drinkwater reveals the way the former owners tried to force him out of the club, what happened during tense meetings when he was looking for a transfer move and the players that helped him when he was in and around the first team.

There’s special praise for Paul Scholes and Cristiano Ronaldo from his time at Old Trafford and Drinkwater reveals a surprising reason for the success of the title winning Leicester City side from 2016.

Drinkwater admits he regrets a loan move to Aston Villa didn’t work out and why he got fined two weeks wages for an incident on the training ground.

There’s a review of Liverpool’s Carabao Cup Final loss to Newcastle, how Slot’s team should have changed their defensive set-up at corners and why Rio thinks that loss could have an impact on the contract negotiations of Mohamed Salah, Virgil; Van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
