Chelsea fans rave about Abraham response to Hudson-Odoi after Chelsea beat Spurs

Tammy Abraham showed that he remains very much a Chelsea favourite after engaging in a Twitter exchange with Callum Hudson-Odoi following the Blues’ win over Tottenham on Sunday.

Chelsea continued their dominant record over Tottenham in London derbies at Stamford Bridge after strolling to a 2-0 victory on Sunday.

Hakim Ziyech’s stunning 25-yard strike nestled into the top corner to hand the hosts the lead in the second half before Thiago Silva headed home from a Mason Mount free-kick.

The Blues had lost only once in their last 38 meetings with Spurs at Stamford Bridge and were rarely troubled aside from a Harry Kane goal, which was chalked off by VAR for a foul by Kane on Thiago Silva.

Hudson-Odoi trotted out the customary message that comes after Chelsea beat Tottenham at Stamford Bridge, telling his followers: “London is blue,” with a blue heart emoji.

Just hours after scoring in Roma’s 4-2 win over Empoli, it is clear Abraham was keeping a close eye on the Chelsea result — and the England international could not resist issuing a cheeky response.

The 24-year-old replied: “It always was.”

The England international finally left the club for Roma in a £34million deal in July, ending his 17-year association with the club he joined as a young boy.

Abraham had been frozen out by Thomas Tuchel after making only seven substitute appearances under the German last season.

But that clearly hasn’t stopped the striker from keeping track of the Blues’ success from afar after heading to Italy for the next chapter in his career.

Naturally, the exchange between Chelsea’s two Cobham favourites was met with a delighted response from the Chelsea faithful on social media.

One fan named Hajir summarised the thoughts of hundreds of blues, telling Abraham: “This is why I love you.”

Another Twitter user suggested the Blues should have some regrets after letting Abraham leave: “Can’t believe we threw you away for Lukaku. A proud Chelsea boy who loves this team,” they wrote.

And one even pledged to crowdfund his transfer fee to return to Stamford Bridge: ”Tammy I’ll put £20 towards your buyback clause.”

It might take a fair few £20 notes to get Abraham back, given his release clause is estimated to be around £80m in 2023, and the striker is enjoying life with 15 goals for the Giallorossi this season.

But it is clear that Chelsea fans are keen to see one of their most successful graduates back in a blue shirt one day — and his love for the club remains despite his heavy-hearted exit.
