Welcome home Super Frank!
“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 […]

1. JOSH ACHEAMPONG (6.9) As with all our recent games during this four-game slide, only one or two players have managed to emerge with any credit from this performance, and this time that distinction belongs to young Josh Acheampong, who was finally given some proper minutes … and wouldn’t you know it, he again responded […]

Liam Delap was Chelsea’s first signing of the summer transfer window as the club moved quickly to address what was seen as a primary area of weakness last season, striker. João Pedro soon followed, with Nicolas Jackson hitting the old dusty trail on (at least for now). But things have not gone quite as we […]

After their first ever defeat of the season, you would expect Chelsea Women to come all guns blazing into a match like today’s. But they didn’t really need it. Soon they were dominating possession and taking chances at goal, with Roma rarely ever threatening Livia Peng’s dominion. No wonder what should have happened against Everton […]

Rarely do Chelsea Women face situations in which they must win a match because winning is ingrained in them. Today is one of those rare occasions where a win is a must. We are relatively safe in the UEFA Women’s Champions League group stage table but we can’t say the same about our morale. We […]

With their loss to Everton in the Women’s Super League last weekend, the dream of a truly unbeaten season for Chelsea Women has come to an end. It might be the “punch” we need to get back on the winning track as we host Italian outfit AS Roma at Stamford Bridge on a night of […]

Chelsea made it four on the spin without a win, losing 2-1 in the Champions League to midtable Serie A side Atalanta last night. The Blues took the lead in the first half but were unable to make that count, making it just one win in our last five away games in all competitions. All […]

The home side started the game with great purpose and intent, buoyed by the constant din of the drums and chanting from the stands, and they almost took the lead inside of the first 5-6 minutes, with Ademola Looman especially looking dangerous. We survived that initial salvo and the following 10-15 minutes as well — […]

Welcome to matchday six of eight in the league phase of the Champions League. Chelsea currently sit seventh in the table; the top eight advance directly to the Round of 16. But the big question is which Chelsea will show up tonight? The one who dominated Chelsea and went toe-to-toe with Arsenal despite being a […]

About 2.5 (two and a half) per cent of voters did not pick Moisés Caicedo to start this game, which is a weird choice considering that Moi has been sitting on his thumbs for well over a week now, since his sending off against Arsenal. He’s still suspended for one more game in the Premier […]

It’s back to Champions League action for the Blues, where last time we recorded a delightful 3-0 win over Barcelona. Since then, things have taken a turn for the worse; in fact, we haven’t won since (though the 1-1 draw against Arsenal with just ten players felt like a win). This is match six of […]

Championship opposition await Chelsea in the third round of the FA Cup, on the second weekend of the new year (weekend of January 10), as The Blues were drawn against Charlton Athletic for our first match in this year’s edition of football’s oldest knockout competition. The draw was held last night, with our good pal […]

Twenty three Chelsea players traveled to Bergamo on Monday, and eleven of them will be selected to start the match against Atalanta tomorrow night in the league phase of the Champions League. But actually, only ten of the eleven need to be decided. Moisés Caicedo is sure to start since he’s missed our last two […]

1. ROBERT SÁNCHEZ (7.6) This wasn’t quite the response, overall, that we were looking for after the defeat against Leeds United, but at least the defending wasn’t completely shambolic and we even managed to keep a clean sheet. Some of that was down to luck, and some of it was down to Bournemouth’s own failings, […]

You couldn’t complain about the way Chelsea Women started their match today against Everton at Kingsmeadow. From kick-off the hosts looked to get the game in a good pace, resulting in a Catarina Macario chance that nearly got us the lead six minutes into the encounter versus the Toffees. Unfortunately for us football is a […]

A few slips in the Women’s Super League means Chelsea Women are in the unusual position of chasing after a league leader instead of leading the charge themselves. This means further pressure to not just keep our perfect record this season, but also win more matches like today’s against Everton at Kingsmeadow. Chelsea starting lineup:Peng […]

Chelsea Women return to Kingsmeadow this weekend looking to steady themselves after back-to-back 1–1 draws. Unbeaten they remain, but the rhythm has dipped, and with the league table tightening above and below, this is the kind of match where control and composure matter more than spectacle. Everton arrive in a difficult moment, sitting near the […]

It was a very messy start for the Blues, and Bournemouth had the ball in the back of the net in short order. Thankfully, Evanilson was leaning offside and thus Semenyo’s goal was ruled out. Chelsea didn’t settle right away and the home side continued to threaten. Eventually, we grew into the game and started […]
