Hmm First Title
Liverpool 1-1 Chelsea, Player Ratings: Not a winger
1. MARC CUCURELLA (7.4) With all actual wingers injured and unavailable, interim head coach Calum McFarlane tasked Marc Cucurella with running down the left wing and the left channel. It wasn’t a complicated assignment, but it worked a treat to expose the weak right side of Liverpool’s defense, where Curtis Jones was playing as a […]
Chelsea FCW 2-3 (a.e.t.) Manchester City WFC, Women’s FA Cup semi-final: Post-match reaction
Having already clinched the Women’s Super League title and interrupted Chelsea Women’s six-fold-consecutive run of lifting that very trophy, Manchester City wanted to inflict more harm upon the only team that managed to beat them more than once this season. They were high in confidence as they did beat us to a pulp last time […]
Chelsea FCW vs. Manchester City WFC, Women’s FA Cup semi-final: Confirmed lineups; how to watch
For the fourth and last time this season, Chelsea Women and Manchester City face each other on the pitch. It’s another “cage”-like match where only one side goes through, with a spot in the Women’s FA Cup final as the reward to the winner today. Thus far it’s advantage Chelsea, although Manchester City did beat […]

Hmm Most Fastest
Calum McFarlane reflects on ‘positive’ Chelsea result against Liverpool that could’ve been even ‘better’
Here we go again. That was surely the overriding emotion when Ryan Gravenberch shifted the ball onto his right foot and absolutely hammered a shot beyond backup goalkeeper Filip Jörgensen to give Liverpool the lead barely five minutes into the lunchtime proceedings at Anfield. Chelsea have made a habit of conceding early — only bottom […]
Chelsea FCW vs. Manchester City WFC, Women’s FA Cup semi-final: Preview, team news, how to watch
Chelsea Women have already lifted the Women’s League Cup this season, and they can get a second cup this year as they’re still in the Women’s FA Cup chase. They will have to beat the current Women’s Super League champions to do so which is no easy feat. But we’ve already done so twice this […]
Liverpool 1-1 Chelsea, Premier League: Post-match reaction, ratings
Only Burnley have conceded more goals in the opening 10 minutes of Premier League games this season than Chelsea, and we added to our tally once again when Ryan Gravenberch hammered in a shot from just outside the area in the 6th minute. The ball was hit so hard, Filip Jörgensen barely had time to […]
Liverpool vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Lineups & Game Thread
It’s bright and early on a Saturday, and the regular crowd have shuffled in. We’re in no mood for a melody, but we’ve got to stay here all night. So play us a song, BlueCo-man. What the team looks like on the pitch will depend on where exactly Jorrel Hato is playing. Is he a […]

Drama Contact Hmm
Chelsea fans’ preferred lineup against Liverpool: Is there any wingers out there?
Chelsea are set to show up at Anfield today with zero recognized wingers in the squad, which is going to require some creative tinkering from interim head coach Calum McFarlane. We do have a few players yet who have played the wide attacking positions at times, including of course Cole Palmer (right) and Enzo Fernández […]
Liverpool vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Preview, team news, how to watch
In a more hopeful moment, I may be reminded of the tail end of the 2013-14 season. We had just thrown away our chance at the title and were dealing with various injuries and suspensions, so we went to Anfield purely with the intent to ruin Liverpool’s hopes and dreams as well. José Mourinho Mk.II […]

Drama Two Close
How should Chelsea line up against Liverpool amid fresh injury crisis?
Chelsea are facing a bit of an injury crisis ahead of this weekend’s trip to Anfield, with both Robert Sánchez and Jesse Derry ruled out after suffering head injuries in Monday’s 3-1 defeat against Nottingham Forest. Teenager Derry was starting because Pedro Neto and Alejandro Garnacho were dealing with knocks, and apparently they won’t be […]
Estêvão opts against surgery, goes to Brazil for rehab amid slim World Cup hopes — report
The hamstring injury suffered by Estêvão against Manchester United a couple weeks ago is said to be about as bad as it gets for such injuries, but the youngster has apparently opted against surgery (for now anyway) and is attempting to rehab it conservatively with faint hopes of a World Cup squad spot evidently on […]

Must be nice Must be nice x2 Hmm
Chelsea set €30m asking price as Wesley Fofana ‘offered’ to Barcelona — reports
Back in 2022, in the heady, naive early days of Todd “Great Meals” Boehly’s ad-hoc sporting directorship, Chelsea made Wesley Fofana one of the most expensive center back transfers of all time (only Harry Maguire and Virgil van Dijk had cost more at the time; Joško Gvardiol then set the current record a year later). […]
Chelsea 1-3 Nottingham Forest, Player Ratings: Recount
As I was entering the ratings from this game into my trusty old Player Ratings spreadsheet, I noticed a pretty big error. I had not been including all the individual player ratings for the overall averages! The bottom five lines had gotten cut off at some point — as it turns out not only this […]

Deal Petition Pushing
Jesse Derry hopes to be back playing ‘very soon’
It was a “dream come true” for young Jesse Derry to make his full senior professional debut last night as Chelsea took on Nottingham Forest at Stamford Bridge. The 18-year-old had been starring all season for our under-21 team, and he was getting his right reward to play from the start, with Pedro Neto, Alejandro […]

Hmm Talks? Oof
João Pedro calls on Chelsea teammates to start taking responsibility
It was João Pedro’s turn to apologize to the fans after yet another horrendous result, our sixth league defeat in a row. At least we did finally score a goal, thanks to JP’s spectacular bicycle kick in stoppage time to provide (scant) consolation in our 3-1 defeat. The wait was almost worth it for our […]
Chelsea 1-3 Nottingham Forest, Premier League: Post-match reaction, ratings
Chelsea barely had a touch of the ball before Nottingham Forest had the ball in the back of the net. An excellent cross from the right flank found the head of Taiwo Awoniyi at the far post, and he made no mistake. The Blues set about overcoming that early setback, but we were not having […]
Chelsea vs. Nottingham Forest, Premier League: Confirmed lineups; how to watch
Welcome to the final month of the season, which we begin with a home game against Nottingham Forest. Nothing but a win will do if we want to keep pace in the race for sixth, and avoid another unsightly midtable finish. Interim head coach Calum McFarlane got his first win last weekend, and he’s kept […]
Chelsea fans’ preferred lineup against Nottingham Forest: Tosin or Hato or Fofana, or Acheampong
Never change a winning lineup: it’s a classic old adage in football. We haven’t had much chance to put that into practice of late, but we did win an important game last weekend, against Leeds United in the FA Cup semifinal, so now we have something to possibly not change. And sure enough, for the […]
