I haven’t updated this thread in a few months, and there has been a lot of movement, so I’ll start to make a few updates in the coming weeks.

New Stamford Bridge – 60,000
The planning application for the new Stamford Bridge was submitted late last year, the Herzog & de Meuron designed stadium will replace the current 40,000 capacity stadium.
