  1. I’ve seen many people giving up on Malo Gusto but personally I think we should be a bit more patient for now. Remember what happened with Marc Cucurella? Dude was getting booed by the Stamford Bridge fans and now he’s turned into some sort of cult hero with them. Gusto is currently going through the […]View the full article
  2. So, Wesley Fofana is out for the rest of this season after undergoing surgery on his hamstring. Fofana’s injury history at Chelsea has been absolutely terrible and I do not think we can rely on him going forward. Chelsea must now prioritise buying a certain type of profile at centre back, and it has to […]View the full article
  3. When it comes to getting Chelsea fans on side, they want to hear fighting talk. They want to hear about Chelsea standards of winning and competing. They want to hear that we are rising up again and here to challenge on all fronts. We have so far been hearing none of this from Maresca and […]View the full article
  4. Over the last few days it has become even more clear that no matter which striker Chelsea go for in the summer, they will face real competition for any of the names we have seen linked. This is why Champions League football this season has become even more important. Although as I did report yesterday, […]View the full article
  5. Super Frank Lampard has become the latest voice to take a shot at the way Chelsea are operating, or at least have operated. Whilst not a direct shot at the owners, Lampard’s words certainly seem to be a dig at how the club were operating when he was the interim manager. When Lampard was there […]View the full article
  6. After two seasons of free spending, managerial changes and complete underachievement, Chelsea have finally settled under the Clearlake-Boehly regime, with Enzo Maresca at the helm. Despite a return to competing for continental places, the sheer amount of money spent on their team will need to eventually justify the price paid, in the return of silverware […]View the full article
  7. I’ve seen the light people. I’ve never been fully convinced by Victor Osimhen and in all honesty, I will still recognise his flaws and have some concerns there. However, for how Chelsea play, Victor Osimhen should be our priority striker target for the summer. I don’t say that lightly either. People know I am a […]View the full article
  8. Reece James scored a beautiful free kick for England last night to open the scoring in their eventual 3-0 win over Latvia in the World Cup qualifiers. James didn’t really celebrate the goal, which was puzzling to many because it was such a good goal to score. It wasn’t just us who were puzzled by […]View the full article
  9. Jadon Sancho started life as a Chelsea player very well in his first few games, making a really positive impact. Most of us were pleased with how he was performing. But then his performances dropped off a cliff edge and recently he has been nothing more than very poor. The whole situation around his loan […]View the full article
  10. As you will all know, I love to write a good opinion piece. But I also like to get different perspectives as well. And I often think it can be quite interesting to hear from those in the game who perhaps don’t support Chelsea to take away that emotional element that I always write with. […]View the full article
  11. This season has been frustrating for most Chelsea fans, to say the least. These young players create plenty of chances, dominate possession, and regularly find themselves in goal-scoring positions—but the finishing just hasn’t been there. For a squad of 60 players valued at a billion, that’s a serious problem. All that possession, all those openings, […]View the full article
  12. Christopher Nkunku has been a massive disappointment since he arrived at the club from RB Leipzig in 2023. Troy Deeney actually said something I agree with. And so did ESPN pundit Steve Nicol: “Christopher Nkunku was absolutely and utterly invisible. In fact, he’s been invisible since he went to Chelsea. At least [Pedro] Neto was […]View the full article
  13. Love or hate Jody Morris, and I am one of those fans who will always hold a soft spot for him regardless, at least he says it as it is and will never beat around the bush. Maybe it is his willingness to call things out and say things as they are that saw him […]View the full article
  14. How hideous is it being forced to watch Robert Sanchez play as Chelsea’s number one every week? He was literally signed from Brighton as their BACKUP goalkeeper, even a third choice. How mad is that? When you think back to some of the world class goalkeepers we have had at this club, then look at […]View the full article
  15. Chelsea is prioritising an attacking signing this summer due to their struggles in front of goal throughout the season. The club attempted to secure Victor Osimhen last year but failed to complete the deal. This time, they are determined to strengthen their attacking options and add more depth to the squad. Nicolas Jackson has been […]View the full article
  16. The reactions are coming in now from Chelsea’s performance in our 1-0 defeat against Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday. Love him or hate him, Matt Law of The Telegraph has made some interesting points in his review article today. ‘It used to be ‘Boring, Boring Arsenal’, but Chelsea are in danger of becoming […]View the full article
  17. It’s a drum I will continue to bang. Mix youth with experience, and you are giving yourself a MUCH better chance of success and not having to wait years for it to come. I believe if Chelsea had done this at the start of their youth project, then we would be playing Champions League football […]View the full article
  18. It’s completely fine to acknowledge that you have changed your opinion and in fact, it is much better to do that rather than stay stubborn and dig your heels in. But when it comes to Marc Cucurella, the guy has made it impossible for people to NOT change their opinion on him. From being booed […]View the full article
  19. Chelsea's journey through the 2024/25 Premier League season has been marred by inconsistency and underwhelming performances, leaving fans and pundits alike searching for answers. According to former Chelsea star Mario Melchiot, the root of the club's struggles lies in a lack of form among key players and significant injuries that have disrupted the team's rhythm […]View the full article
  20. People are spending far too much energy in trying to change other people’s opinions, telling them what to do, or getting annoyed with how others react. Life is too short for all that noise. Just do you. If you’re happy after a Chelsea win and just want to celebrate that, then do it. Log off […]View the full article
  21. Reece James in centre midfield is something I have always been a fan of. Granted, he is one of the best right backs in the world when fit and on form, but I genuinely believe he could also grow to be one of the best defensive midfielders in the world too, and he is a […]View the full article
  22. If I was a professional footballer, there are some former players who I would look up to but not only that, study. I would find out what they used to do, how they used to train, what they would eat, anything else they would do, and I’d do that and more to get to the […]View the full article
  23. One of many Chelsea fans biggest issues with the club right now is the sporting directors and their inexperience. They don’t have any top level experience being a director of football, they lack experience building a squad, and they have very little transfer negotiating experience. Yet here they are, now in full power of building […]View the full article
  24. Estevao Willian is a superb player and one that I will always applaud the Chelsea decision makers and scouts for spotting and getting a deal done early doors before other big clubs came in. His talent is immense, he has the X-factor, and he can get to world beater level. Of course he can be […]View the full article
  25. The captain, leader, and legend has spoken ladies and gents, and it comes as no surprise to hear him saying basically what we have all been saying, what the likes of John Obi Mikel, Frank Leboeuf, Frank Lampard, Jody Morris, Joe Cole have been saying, what top pundits and journos have been saying, and loads […]View the full article
