Welcome home Super Frank!
It’s been an easy path for us so far in the League Cup, as we’ve reached the final four by playing two games against third division clubs (Lincoln City and Cardiff City) and one against the worst team in the Premier League (Wolverhampton Wanderers). However, things are about to get significantly more difficult now. In […]

Even with deep changes in their squad this summer Wolfsburg remain a very strong team, especially when playing at home. Chelsea Women are well aware of such a challenge even if the squad that once beat them at home in the UEFA Women’s Champions League nearly six years ago is also long gone. As expected […]

There’s only one way for Chelsea Women to leave their UEFA Women’s Champions League fate in their hands, which is beating Wolfsburg at the German side’s turf. We’ve done this once several years ago when the Wolves were the team to beat in Europe. While they haven’t been as powerful in current times, gone are […]

It’s the final group stage round of the 2025-26 season in the UEFA Women’s Champions League. Another situation in which a draw for Chelsea Women won’t suffice. The Blues must win this match if they want “smooth sailing” into the competition’s knockout rounds as they sit third in the league table, but with few points […]

Chelsea advanced to the League Cup semifinals with last night’s perfunctory 3-1 win over third-division Cardiff City, showing just enough bits of requisite quality in the second half to dispatch the opposition. It wasn’t pretty, and it was hardly entertaining, but it got the job done while giving some much needed rest to many. Enzo […]

A well rotated Chelsea lineup came out of the blocks as if they had never seen each other, let alone ever played together, making for a frustrating first 45 minutes of football. And at no point in the first half would we do anything to dissuade that notion, playing with no cohesion, zero quality, and […]

Welcome to the quarterfinals of the League Cup. Though we’re away, Chelsea got a favorable draw in facing the last lower-league side left in this competition. Cardiff sit atop the third division, but we are the firm favorites. This is an obvious opportunity to rotate, and Enzo Maresca has done just that — choosing (almost!) […]

Some of Chelsea’s lesser spotted squad members are expected to get some minutes tonight against third-division Cardiff City in the League Cup. Though a spot in the semifinals is on the line, we should be able to dispatch the only lower-league side remaining in this competition without needing all the usual suspects. The upcoming schedule […]

Enzo Maresca may have lost the plot a bit in his dealings with the media in the last couple press conferences, talking about how it was the worst 48 hours of his Chelsea life last week due to lack of “support”, then refusing to elaborate on any part of that cryptic messaging when asked about […]

Next up for Chelsea is the quarterfinals of the League Cup, wherein we’ll be facing the only lower-league side left in the competition, third division outfit Cardiff City. That sounds easy on paper, but we are away and The Bluebirds are leading their division, so confidence will not be in short order for them. For […]

1. MALO GUSTO (8.5) Not only was this Gusto’s first player ratings podium finish of the season, it is his first Man of the Match under Enzo Maresca. That’s a bit surprising, given Maresca’s propensity for shoehorning Gusto into the lineup at just about any position other than goalkeeper, but the (still very) young right […]

There wasn’t complexity in Brighton’s approach to the match at Broadfield Stadium today, as they hosted Chelsea Women in a Women’s Super League clash. It all boiled down to hunkering down and enduring as much pressure as possible, looking for a loose ball that could be within their reach in midfield so they can try […]

Chelsea Women have gone beyond proving their real mettle since that bitter loss to Everton at Kingsmeadow last weekend, sending AS Roma packing at Stamford Bridge with ease in an UEFA Women’s Champions League match. But clearly this season the Women’s Super League is an entirely different beast. One with matches like today’s against Brighton […]

Enzo Maresca must have been feeling the heat a bit, after going without a win in four straight, matching his longest winless streak as Chelsea manager. Maybe not from his superiors, at least not directly, or even from the fans. And certainly not from his players … which would leave the media at large. You’re […]

Time to go back to domestic action, with Chelsea Women taking on Brighton away in the Women’s Super League. We desperately need a victory to get back within grasping range of current league leaders Manchester City, and the Seagulls will be eager to try to double our trouble in the competition. Date / Time: Sunday, December […]

If we were looking for Chelsea to respond to Tuesday’s defeat, and the four-match unbeaten run, we would not have been too happy with the opening exchanges of this game. Neither side were putting a strong foot forward, though perhaps the visitors were posing a bit more danger, through the twinkling feet of Iliman Ndiaye […]

It’s fifth versus seventh, with out of form Chelsea taking on in-form Everton. The visitors have won four out of five. Chelsea have failed to win any of our last four in all competitions. Everton have not won at the Bridge for 30 years. Enzo Maresca has made a couple changes from midweek, as Cole […]

Enzo Maresca has played down the idea of playing both Cole Palmer and Estêvão together, at least from the start of a game, but with Palmer having been injured most of the season, that’s not really a decision that has had to be even made thus far. (They’ve started just one game together, our 2-1 […]

“Let’s make things right, together,” says Cole Palmer in his Instagram story the night before Chelsea take on Everton, back at Stamford Bridge after three straight away, two of which we lost in quite disappointing fashion. In fact, it is now four without a win, matching the longest streak of Enzo Maresca’s tenure as Blues […]

With Tuesday’s 2-1 defeat to Atalanta in the Champions League, Enzo Maresca has equaled his longest winless streak as Chelsea manager. Though one of these four games felt like a win — getting a draw against Arsenal despite playing a man down for over an hour — it’s now two draws and two defeats since […]
