Player ratings: Noni Madueke grabs late winner in message to Mauricio Pochettino
An ugly win, but importantly a win for Chelsea. It’s one of those that we’d put aside in the “forgettable” files, but it’s three points, and we take them. Djordje Petrovic – 7 Solid distribution, a few tidy saves and nothing much else of note. We can’t ask much more from our keeper today. Malo […]
Player ratings: Chelsea suffer another away defeat to Wolves
Back to square minus five. A fourth away loss in a row, the same old issues, the same names to blame. Is it a surprise anymore? Djordje Petrovic – 7 One of only two actual positives today with a few big saves, most notably his one from Lemina’s header. Still no complaints about him as […]
Player ratings: Chelsea miraculously defeat Newcastle to get into the Carabao Cup semi final!
A lively night under the lights at The Bridge sees us advance into the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup, courtesy of a late Mudryk leveler, and a superb Dorde Petrovic save to seal the win on penalties. Is this the night it changes? Is it another false start? Time will tell, but for now we […]
Player ratings: Pochettino out! Chelsea lose 2-0 to Everton
Another abysmal afternoon for Chelsea, this time coming at the hands of Everton, who now sit just six points behind Pochettino’s side despite having a 10 point deduction a few weeks ago. In my mind, time is up for Mauricio Pochettino. Robert Sanchez – 5 One of the performances that wasn’t a standout today, which […]
Player ratings: Chelsea escape with 3 points after narrow victory against Brighton
A jam-packed afternoon at Stamford Bridge saw a depleted Chelsea do enough to see off Roberto De Zerbi’s men despite their (and VAR’s) best efforts in the second half. Who performed? Who struggled? Who was the hero of the day for Maurico Pochettino’s dark arts blues? It is time for the player ratings. Robert Sanchez […]
Player ratings: Chelsea draw 4-4 against Manchester City in one of the craziest games at Stamford Bridge in history
Wow, what a game! This is a Chelsea squad with character, and a care for the club – quite very clearly shown in the performance today, that yielded the result that we deserved. Lets try and dissect it in the ratings… Robert Sanchez – 7 Whilst I thought he was poor for City’s third goal, […]
Player ratings: Chelsea smash Spurs 4-1 in feisty London derby!
TOTTENHAM GET BATTERED EVERYWHERE THEY GO! Granted, we made it hard work, somewhat embarrassing at times in the second half. But let’s have it right, a 4-1 win at Three Point Lane, is a 4-1 win at Three Point Lane. In what was hands down, the craziest, most unpredictable, chaotic game of the season, Chelsea […]
Player ratings: Chelsea breeze into quarter finals of the Carabao Cup with 2-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers
Chelsea reached the quarter finals of the league cup tonight with a straight forward, yet hardly vintage 2-0 win against Blackburn Rovers. I felt we had a few standout performers, and overall an average bunch as a whole, but no complaints on my part tonight. Robert Sanchez – 5 A clean sheet, which is a […]
Player ratings: Chelsea bottle two goal lead to Arsenal but Mauricio Pochettino will be very happy with the performance
A flawless performance in many respects, and one that deserved a win. Let down by a dire mistake that ultimately cost us our lead, but there are positives to be had, don’t you think? Robert Sanchez – 4 No point holding back, this is someone who has completely and utterly cost us the game. We […]
Player ratings: Chelsea dismantle Burnley 4-1 courtesy of Raheem Sterling brilliance
We head into the international break with three wins in a row! Who’d have thought? After going 1-0 down with a poor start, we pulled ourselves back into the game and took the second half by storm, with an eventually comfortable three points. An all round positive day, with a mixture of brilliant performances, as […]
