With Liverpool’s first Premier League title for 30 years all but wrapped up by Christmas, the focus for the concluding weeks of the season turned to the always entertaining battle for the Champions League places. Last year all of the competing teams were truly abysmal in crawling towards the line to qualify, and while the […]View the full article

The Premier League transfer window only opened yesterday, but Chelsea have already made two significant signings. The previously agreed deals to bring in Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner have now been concluded, and the pair are already training at Cobham – with two matches still left to play in the 2019-2020 season. There may even […]View the full article

There is no doubt right now that Chelsea boss Frank Lampard is unsure on his number one goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga. The Spanish international has been inconsistent this season to say the least, and it appears that he may not fit the type of profile stopper that Lampard wants at the heart of his defence. But […]View the full article

It looks like it could be a pretty busy summer at Chelsea this year. In fact, after the announcement that the transfer window will be running for ten weeks this summer into October, it might actually end up being a busy Autumn as well.

Against all the odds, Chelsea have been given a lifeline. Their 3-0 defeat against Sheffield United on Saturday looked like it was going to be a blow so devastating – both in terms of morale and in terms of points in the table – that it would not be possible to recover from. As it’s […]View the full article

Chelsea fans were incredibly excited about the return of Tammy Abraham after the coronavirus break. The striker was injured when the season broke off, and getting him back for these remaining games was supposed to be a big boost. Instead, Olivier Giroud has proven to be the more effective option, both in scoring and linking […]View the full article

I had some ‘conversations’ via my Twitter account earlier today regarding Ruben Loftus-Cheek. The short story is that I believe Loftus-Cheek will become very important for Chelsea once he returns to full match fitness, and some other fans oddly want him sold, or are criticising his performances this season. I mean, that is just absurd. […]View the full article

Frank Lampard showed his tactical managerial versatility last week as he perfectly set up his team to out-fox Pep Guardiola and beat his Manchester City side. This weekend he needed to show another side of him in order to beat Leicester City in the FA Cup, his nasty side. As a result, Chelsea now have […]View the full article

Pep Guardiola is one of the best in the business when it comes to coaching a team. He is surrounded by quality talent, but the way he gets his team to play can often be mesmerising. His players make it look easy to play against a high pressing team, always managing to have a spare […]View the full article

Chelsea beat Aston Villa 2-1 in their first Premier League game in three and a half months yesterday, and although it has been such a long time since they played, not much has changed. Frank Lampard’s side literally bossed the whole game, coming away with 72% of the possession after 90 minutes. But it was […]View the full article

Chelsea have already secured the signing of Hakim Ziyech for this summer, and assuming nothing goes wrong in the next few days, Timo Werner looks set to join him. A new left back has long been a priority area, and we fully expect Ben Chilwell (or a cheaper version) to arrive this summer to start […]View the full article

Chelsea appear to be doing a madness in the transfer market this summer, or at least those are the reported plans. We know that striker Timo Werner has agreed to join (Source – BBC), and we just await official word from the club. But as well as this potential arrival, Chelsea have contacted Bayer Leverkusen […]View the full article

So let’s get this straight. Chelsea want a new left back – if you’ve been reading the back pages at all this season (or, in fact, watching Marcos Alonso and Emerson Palmieri play) you’ll already know that. Ben Chilwell is top of their list, but they may be forced into more creative solutions if Leicester […]View the full article

Chelsea have had a number of successful strike partnerships over the years, one of which stands out to me because it was quite different. Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka had a great partnership at Chelsea both playing in the same side. But they were not two centre forwards in the classic sense; Anelka used to […]View the full article

Now that we know that this Premier League season is going to be restarted and hopefully finished, teams are already looking ahead to what will be a short summer window before the next campaign kicks off at some point, probably in September.

The Bundesliga resumed in Germany yesterday, and the prospect of Europe’s top leagues playing out the remaining games of their 2019/2020 seasons behind closed doors grows ever more feasible. The Premier League is quite far back in the queue, with players only returning to training this coming week, but it’s time to start seriously thinking […]View the full article

You have probably seen the reports by now regarding Chelsea being in talks with Juventus over a potential Jorginho for Miralem Pjanic swap deal.

It’s exactly a year since Ruben Loftus-Cheek ruptured his Achilles tendon playing for Chelsea in a friendly against New England Revolution in the United States. It was a sickening moment, watching the Cobham youth product leave the stadium on crutches just days before the Europa League final. That match would have been the crowing glory […]View the full article

The current football season is looking more likely to be restarted by the day as we hear about extensive plans to be concluded. The league looks like it could restart at the beginning of June, meaning in about 4 weeks time we could see Chelsea’s stars return to action once again. Frank Lampard’s team were […]View the full article

Chelsea have had a reasonably good season so far when you take all things into account. Frank Lampard’s first season as a manager in the top flight, losing our best and most creative player in Eden Hazard, and not being able to sign anyone in the transfer market. Lampard has lead his team to moments […]View the full article
