Chelsea FCW 2-0 Liverpool FCW, Women’s Super League: Post-match reaction

It’s kind of boring to keep repeating this so often. But this Chelsea Women is not playing as confidently as they were since their Arsenal loss followed by an absolute beatdown handed to them by Manchester City. No wonder we’ve had major developments ever since in a mostly drama-free club, namely Sonia Bompastor’s extension to […]

Chelsea FCW vs. Liverpool FCW, Women’s Super League: Lineups & Game Thread

Chelsea Women have done well in finding balance again in the Women’s Super League by beating city rivals Tottenham last weekend. But to really be back in usual business we need to string along some well needed wins, beginning with Liverpool at Kingsmeadow today. We did beat the Reds 9-1 at their turf a while […]

Marc Cucurella to miss 3-4 weeks with hamstring injury — report

According to the BBC, Marc Cucurella “is hoping to return in 3-4 weeks” from his hamstring injury, which presumably finally got properly scanned and assessed, with a rehab plan put in place. Cucurella got hurt in the game against Leeds United on Tuesday, but on Friday night, after our 4-0 victory against Hull City, head […]

‘World-class’ Pedro Neto joins the hat-trick party

Like London buses, Chelsea hat-tricks are coming in bunches. After not seeing one for over a calendar year, we’ve now had two in the space of a week. Pedro Neto’s last night might not be as historic as Cole Palmer’s was a couple game ago … though it’s probably pretty rare to have one of […]

Hull City 0-4 Chelsea, FA Cup: Post-match reaction, ratings

There was plenty of attacking impetus from both sides at the start, with Hull threatening first, then Chelsea wasting several presentable chances through Alejandro Garnacho and Pedro Neto. Mamadou Sarr announced his presence in defense with a goal-line clearance, then raised eyebrows with a glorious long ball to Estêvão, who shrugged off a defender, rounded […]

Chelsea fans’ preferred lineup against Hull City: Half rotation

Both managers are expected to rotate their teams for tonight’s FA Cup fourth round match between Hull City and Chelsea — not because this game isn’t important, but because both teams are coming out of grueling stretches of fixture congestion, while dealing with injury and other massive games coming up soon. The WAGNH Community are […]

Hull City vs. Chelsea, FA Cup: Preview, team news, how to watch

After a dozen or so games as interim manager at Derby County, Liam Rosenior got his first proper job as a football manager when he was appointed Hull City boss in November 2022. He had spent his prime years at Hull as a player back in the 2010s, so it was a lovely little homecoming […]

How should Chelsea line up against Hull City in the FA Cup?

It’s FA Cup weekend and Chelsea get the fourth round festivities started with a trip up to Hull City. The Tigers are among the best teams in the second division — currently fourth — and there’s added narrative pressure with Liam Rosenior returning to face the club where he played for five years and would […]

Chelsea 2-2 Leeds United, Player Ratings: Please keep pushing João Pedro

1. JOÃO PEDRO (7.6) I’m not sure what makes João Pedro’s upper back so inviting for defenders to put both hands there and then blatantly push away on it, but whatever it is, I hope it just keeps happening. So, another penalty won, another goal scored, and (what should’ve been) another secondary assist on the […]

Liam Rosenior looks for positive trends in ‘bitter pill’ Leeds United draw

Chelsea contrived to drop two points to Leeds United last night, two points that could prove quite costly in the race for the Champions League spots for next season when all is said and done. Thankfully, Manchester United then also proceeded to drop two points to West Ham, so the immediate damage isn’t too big […]

Chelsea 2-2 Leeds United, Premier League: Post-match reaction, ratings

It took a little bit for the game to get into gear, but after a tiny bit of threat from the visitors early on, Chelsea established control and set about breaking down Leeds’ back-five. While we weren’t able to do so too often, we did create a few excellent opportunities and put together some very […]

Chelsea vs. Leeds United, Premier League: Lineups & Game Thread

It’s time for some football under the lights on this drizzly Tuesday night, with some old foes coming to town for the first time in about three years. There’s plenty of history between these two sides, with lots of memorable matches, so let’s make tonight a forgettable experience with a straightforward win. Liam Rosenior has […]

Chelsea fans’ preferred lineup against Leeds United: Not the time to take it easy

A derby in all but name, the visitors will certainly be up for this one at Stamford Bridge tonight, so Chelsea will have to match them not only tactically but also in terms of energy, effort, and determination. And that hasn’t always been the case for us when facing “lesser” teams — Leeds are only […]

Chelsea vs. Leeds United, Premier League: Preview, team news, how to watch

Winners of four straight, Chelsea come into the final third of the season as one of the hottest teams in the Premier League. Only Manchester United have collected more points over the past five games — that one extra point has them one point ahead of us in fourth. Below, a four-point gap has opened […]

Official: Paul Green leaves role as Chelsea’s Head of Women’s Football

Paul Green, a key figure in Chelsea’s rise to the very top of women’s football in England, has left the club, today, with an official statement confirming his departure after thirteen (13!) years of dedicated service to the organization. It’s a fairly brief and rather formulaic statement that doesn’t exactly befit his accomplishments and legacy, […]
