Chelsea endured a mixed season last campaign, winning the Europa League and finishing in the top four. However, the club were also on the end of some heavy defeats away to big clubs in the Premier League.
So, it seems Chelsea could use the help of some superheroes next season, and one user on Twitter thinks he knows just the pair, Batman and Captain America.

The nicknames are in reference to Chelsea duo Michy Batshuayi, who is nicknamed ‘Batsman‘, and Christian Pulisic, who has been labelled Captain America due to his nationality
Fans seemed to see the funny side of the tweet and reacted with hilarity towards it.
Here is a selection of tweets from fans who loved the superhero references, and some even came up with their own:
