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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

One thing I noticed in the Southampton win last night was that we were getting the most joy in terms of attacking play when Filip Jorgensen lobbed a short pass forward or hit a ground pass through to Pedro Neto, rather than passing it back and forth to Enzo Fernandez hoping that we could squeeze […]View the full article

I love Liam Delap, I’ve always said that. But of course I have concerns, as I would do about any young player we would sign who does not come in with heaps of experience. With Delap though, he’s just turned 22, and he does come with almost 100 senior appearances to his name across Manchester […]View the full article

It seems like just yesterday that we were watching Enzo Maresca's first games as Chelsea manager, wondering what a new coach would bring in terms of style and changes to last season. Well the season has flown by, and we're now 2/3rds of the way through the campaign already. It's time to start looking ahead […]View the full article

Do these Chelsea managers not learn from recent history? Do they not do their homework? Do they not care what reaction they get from Chelsea fans? Do they not do the simple task of reading the room? Graham Potter telling us every week after another terrible performance that ‘the boys gave everything’ is probably one […]View the full article

Who is in charge at Chelsea? Is it the owners as a whole? Is it Clearlake with the majority stake and all the power? Is it Todd Boehly and the backers he has in the board room? Is it the co-sporting directors, Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley? Well, from what I have heard as of […]View the full article

It’s no secret that Chelsea’s new approach to transfers revolves around young talents that can be snapped up for cheap and then sold on for big bucks in the future. When looking at the first team squad, there are numerous examples there already, with the likes of Malo Gusto, Renato Veiga, Carney Chukwuemeka, and Marc […]View the full article

Don’t get me wrong, I understand the intentions of bringing in former professional Rugby player Willie Isa, and I’m not saying it is a bad idea. I mean, I can’t see many of the players not listening to him!! But for many of the things he is apparently bringing, would it not just be better […]View the full article

I’ve seen a lot of criticism for John Obi Mikel, but I’ve also seen other fans completely backing him and appreciate the fact he is out there in the public eye with a large voice, fighting the good fight for our club. I can see why Mikel annoys people. Some of his opinions are wild, […]View the full article

The waves in the Chelsea sea have now got so big that Clearlake and the sporting directors are about to get dunked on. The fans have had enough. Their voices are getting louder. Protests are being planned. Anti-ownership songs are being sung at games. The tide has turned on them, and they’re about to get […]View the full article

Enzo Maresca has caused quite the stir this week with his comments after a defeat to Brighton in the FA Cup. His team took the lead but then were really pathetic in how they tried to capitalise on it. Just as we saw in the Man City game a couple of weeks ago - and […]View the full article

No, it’s not up to me to tell you who was available and who we could have signed. I don’t get paid a stupid amount of money to find them and negotiate to sign them, the so-called ‘experts’ do. The minute someone tries to say ‘but nobody was available in January’ it honestly makes me […]View the full article

For some reason, this week has been ‘the Jadon Sancho week’ and really, it needn’t be at all. Yes, he made a comment to Marcus Rashford about being free from Manchester United, so what? I think any of us would want to be the heck away from that club right now, it’s an absolute mess […]View the full article

As England gears up for its upcoming Nations League fixtures, one player who has dominated discussions in footballing circles is Cole Palmer. The young Chelsea forward has rapidly emerged as one of the most exciting talents in both domestic and international football. His impressive performances have led many, including pundits and former players, to suggest […]View the full article

It’s so easy for the owners to turn things around and get the fan base on board a bit more, well, most of us. It’s an easy fix. Of course, there are broader issues like the operations and how players are being bought and sold for profit, and how the academy players are being sold […]View the full article
