Reece James, Pedro Neto feature in warm-up friendlies ahead of World Cup

The World Cup starts later this week, which means all the participating teams are now fully focused on their preparations. For most, that includes one or two warm-up friendlies as well, though it’s unclear what the point of any such games may be when you use 22 players for one half each — it’s not […]

Marc Cucurella ‘believes his time’ at Chelsea ‘is at an end’ — report

Catalan media have started to make a fair bit of noise over Marc Cucurella in recent days, with a story in La Vanguardia making some of the strongest and most definitive claims yet about the left back’s future. As they put it, Cucurella “believes his time at Chelsea, after four seasons, has come to an […]

Lauren James, Alyssa Thompson, Veerle Buurman nominated for PFA awards

It’s turned into a rebuilding year for Chelsea Women, with plenty of changes behind the scenes, quite a few disappointing results on the pitch, and multiple seismic shifts among the playing squad, but the future’s still looking bright given the ambition and the talent of the team. Case in point: two of the six nominees […]

João Pedro wins Chelsea’s 2025-26 Goal of the Season award

Chelsea may have “short”-listed a whopping fourteen (14!) goals for the club’s annual Goal of the Season award, but there were pretty clearly only a few efforts truly worthy of that honor. And though personally, I voted for Estêvão’s goal against Barcelona, João Pedro’s acrobatic bicycle goal against Nottingham Forest was certainly just as deserving. […]

Manchester City, Chelsea in talks over Enzo Maresca compensation — report

Enzo Maresca is expected to be named the successor to Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, but one of the things holding that up right now is any compensation that may be due to Chelsea, Maresca’s prior employer. When Maresca walked away from the Chelsea job at the turn of the year, he (seemingly) did so […]

Chelsea unveil 2026-27 home shirt from Nike

My two favorite home shirts from the past few decades have been the 2008-09 edition and the special one-off 50th anniversary commemorative FA Cup victory shirt from 2019-20. I don’t ever buy kits, but I regret not getting that one at the time. So in theory, I should absolutely love the home shirt for next […]

Marc Cucurella ‘willing to leave’ Chelsea as ‘multiple clubs’ make enquiries — report

Here’s a mild take for ya: of all the potential big(-ish) money exits possible this summer at Chelsea, Marc Cucurella’s would probably be the least impactful. Jorrel Hato’s ready. Cucu’s been quiet-quitting since January, but certainly since the end of March. And his performances on the pitch (especially compared to last season) have reflected that. […]

Official: Chelsea FCW sign Katie McCabe on free transfer from Arsenal WFC

Katie McCabe has been a thorn in our side for many years — figuratively, and quite literally as well considering her hard-nosed playing style — but hopefully it’ll be our opponents who will be feeling the pain going forward, with the veteran left back agreeing to join Chelsea on a free transfer today. The 30-year-old […]

Vote for Chelsea’s 2025-26 Goal of the Season

Chelsea have revealed the nominations for this year’s (men’s) Goal of the Season, with a whopping 14 (fourteen!) goals shortlisted for the award. Not much of a “short” list! Among this rather lengthy list of nominees are some quite, dare I say, ordinary goals, like Pedro Neto’s against West Ham United. Neto may have won […]

Everton ‘still weighing up’ Tyrique George loan option — report

When Tyrique George joined Everton on loan in January, it seemed like it was less of a temporary farewell than an actual final goodbye — especially as the loan had a purchase option attached, thought to be in the region of just £20m. And though George has impressed in his appearances on Merseyside, those appearances […]

PSG vs. Arsenal, Champions League Final: Open Thread

If you’re rooting for Arsenal, I suggest visiting The Short Fuse. (But not to troll! Trolls get banned.) If you’re rooting for PSG or just football in general, welcome. It’s the 2026 Champions League final, and we have to hope that it’s Champions League PSG who show up today, rather than Club World Cup PSG. […]

Chelsea ‘in the running’ for Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konaté — report

Ibrahima Konaté looked all set to sign a contract extension at Liverpool just a few weeks ago, but apparently something has gone drastically wrong behind the scenes, and the 27-year-old now looks set to leave the Reds when his contract expires at the end of June. Oopsies! It’s not clear what happened to cause such […]
