If yesterday’s game taught me one thing and one thing only, it is the importance of picking a designated penalty taker list of names. I actually don’t understand why Mauricio Pochettino, as the head coach of the team, does not do this. Chelsea beat Leicester City 4-2 yesterday to reach the semi finals of the […]View the full article

Malo Gusto is only 20-years-old and is already becoming one of the most important players in this Chelsea team. He has it all and above all, his attitude and mentality is incredible and is THE key. The signing of Gusto for me simply MUST prove to be the blueprint for future Chelsea recruitment. I don’t […]View the full article

Mark Twain is attributed to having said: “There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics." It is an adage that often rings true in modern football as players are - rightly or wrongly - judged by the numbers they return during a season. However, these stats can often be used selectively to […]View the full article

It’s certainly not all doom and gloom at Chelsea right now and despite the fact that we are sat in 11th place in the Premier League in mid-March. I still have no doubts that our owners are full of ambition in and passion for this club. I see and hear all the negativity about the […]View the full article

I’m not even the biggest fan of Mykhailo Mudryk in this fanbase, but if he doesn’t start the game on Sunday then for me that’s an instant sackable offense. Extreme? Maybe. But it’s the stark reality. I think Mudryk has shown a lot of promise and can certainly do some great things. He is a […]View the full article

For Chelsea fans, the 2023/24 Champions League has made for difficult viewing. Of course, the matches have been good – the matchup between Union Berlin and Real Madrid was one of the most entertaining 90 minutes of football in recent memory – but Chelsea’s absence has undoubtedly put a damper on things. That absence was […]View the full article

Chelsea have no game this weekend, allowing fans to take a brief break from the pain and tune in to some awesome action elsewhere - from England -Ireland in the rugby to Liverpool - Man City in the Premier League. The break from Blues agony doesn't last long though. They're back in action on Monday […]View the full article

We wrote that Sunday's game would be a critical one for the future of Mauricio Pochettino, and so it's proving. It wasn't just the defeat, it was the manner of the defeat. And it wasn't just the manner of the defeat either, it was all compounded by the manager's comments since. His job, if it wasn't on […]View the full article

Getting to a cup final really helped the mood at Chelsea. Things would be a lot bleaker if the league was out only outlet. Our indifferent form sees us wedged into 11th place, seemingly unable to get higher than 10th or lower than 12th. Things don't get any easier now either. March looks like a make or […]View the full article

Once again last night, after Chelsea beat Leeds United, Mauricio Pochettino had a chance to go out on the pitch and clap the fans. Something that goes a long way in creating a connection with the fanbase. But just like he has done all season so far, he didn't even think about doing it. And […]View the full article

The season is rolling on at some speed. It feels like Mauricio Pochettino has only just got his feet under the table, but in fact Chelsea have played 25 of their 38 league games this season. There's a third of the season left, but what can we expect from it? At our current inconsistent clip […]View the full article

But have no fear - with the right tactics and transfers, you can transform Chelsea into an unstoppable force. In this guide, we'll explore […]View the full article

Gary Neville is not the most likeable character and he has often got nothing but negativity to push against Chelsea. It’s obvious he doesn’t like the owners and the way they have ran the club so far. Like everyone, he is entitled to an opinion, even though most people think his opinions are often wild […]View the full article

Chelsea host dirty Leeds United at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup fifth round on Wednesday night. This is a game that any Chelsea fan knows carries a heavy historical background to it and if the players cannot get up for such a fixture with so much history and with it also being in The […]View the full article

Chelsea's season hangs by a thread after defeat in the EFL Cup. They're wallowing in mid table in the Premier League, seemingly unable to reach higher than 8th or lower than 14th. Their last hope of glory is the FA Cup, and our next game in that competition comes up on Wednesday, before the dust […]View the full article

Chelsea have had a dreadful season all told, full of moments of brief hope combined with devastating losses like the one we suffered yesterday at Wembley. All of this is rather contrary to expectation. We brought in a new manager and spent a lot of money and there was a lot of hope about our […]View the full article

After an exceptionally quiet January, it feels like Chelsea are getting all their ducks in a row for a big summer. They will have to sell a few players first, but once the books are balanced it's time to bring in some players - with a striker top of the agenda. A lot of people […]View the full article

Chelsea's up and down 2023/2024 season has been extremely stressful, to say the least. In a way it's been more stressful than our last campaign, which was so bad that we were basically already looking forward to the summer by this point. This time around, we've been good for just enough games that it's kept […]View the full article

Chelsea face Liverpool in the League Cup final at Wembley on Sunday and as we know, both teams are hit heavy with injury absentees. Looking at the players that Liverpool could potentially be missing on Sunday, does provide me with a little more hope I’ll be honest. But either way, this is going to be […]View the full article

The Carabao Cup final between Chelsea and Liverpool is coming up on Sunday, and finally we have something for Blues fans to get excited about after almost two full seasons of misery. We take on a Liverpool team who are plagued by injury, but are also top of the Premier League and looking in menacing […]View the full article
