  1. After a couple of weeks of buildup, Chelsea finally got into transfer completion mode in the last few days, sealing a long-awaited deal for Ben Chilwell and a rather surprising free transfer for Thiago Silva to complement the deals already in place for Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech. All of this has seen Chelsea’s title […]View the full article
  2. Considering they did better than expected, and considering how well they played at times, it was surprising to look at the Chelsea squad once the dust had settled on this season and realise just how many areas needed serious upgrades. A new first choice goalkeeper was desperately required, a new left back after Marcos Alonso […]View the full article
  3. It’s been a whirlwind of a day for Chelsea fans when it comes to transfer news. First of all there has been real progression with the Kai Havertz deal, that being right on the brink now. As well as that, we have got the ‘here we go’ from Fabrizio Romano regarding former PSG defender Thiago […]View the full article
  4. You either love the transfer window, or you hate it. It is filled with rumours, speculation, predictions, more rumours, more speculation, and eventually when we are all old and grey, and announcement of a new signing. But I am guessing that the fact you have arrived at this article means that you are a fan […]View the full article
  5. After an exceptionally long season, Chelsea finished fourth in the Premier League, level on points with Manchester United but losing out on goal difference. It was a tough battle right down to the last game just to scrape into the top four, but the reality is that the Blues were a mile off Liverpool at […]View the full article
  6. 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
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. 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. Having already signed Hakim Ziyech and Timo Wernrer, Chelsea are looking […]View the full article
  10. Ben Chilwell is ‘not for sale and it is as simple as that’, says Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers as he addressed the media via zoom today. "He's not for sale, simple as that." – Brendan Rodgers sends a message to clubs hoping to sign Ben Chilwell in the transfer window [via @footballdaily] pic.twitter.com/ilvQpUpi3g — […]View the full article
  11. 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
  12. 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
  13. 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
  14. When you love someone or something, you find various ways to show it. If you’re a Chelsea football lover, there are tons of ways to show your beloved intrigue with the team. While your sentiments might evolve and change over time, consider the following ways you can consistently show love to the Chelsea football team. […]View the full article
  15. Chelsea are gearing up for another important Premier League match tomorrow evening. Many will be looking to partake in some football betting ahead of this big match up between one side looking to qualify for Champions League football, and the other merely fighting for their Premier League survival. West Ham are currently joint second from […]View the full article
  16. 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
  17. 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
  18. 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
  19. Chelsea are in talks to sign Brentford winger Said Benrahma, according to French outlet RMC Sport. #Chelsea have entered into talks with Said #Benrahma's representatives. Chelsea have formally expressed an interest in the player to Brentford. Leicester and Arsenal interested. — Mohamed Bouhafsi (@mohamedbouhafsi) June 15, 2020 Just as that news came out, The Telegraph […]View the full article
  20. It is an exciting time to be a Chelsea fan right now as the club looks to be fully backing manager Frank Lampard in the transfer market. In a time when most other clubs will be carefully watching what they spend, Chelsea are being reliably linked with a number of top quality players coming in […]View the full article
  21. 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
  22. 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
  23. 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
  24. 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
  25. 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. They will have to move quickly to get deals done in such a […]View the full article
