Chelsea seal Champions League qualification with a 1-0 win away at Nottingham Forest on the last day of the season!! A fantastic end to a tough old season, but it truly is hard to argue against us deserving to be there. GET IN! Robert Sanchez – 7 A clean sheet to end the season, and […]
A big summer awaits – Clearlake and Boehly’s project depends on it
A big summer awaits Chelsea and as I write this, a big week awaits the club too on the pitch. The ramifications of the upcoming two games span far wider than the future of Enzo Maresca and the fans’ sanity over the summer. I’ve been generally positive over the project, though my patience and faith […]
Chelsea should take up the option to buy Jadon Sancho and here’s why
Jadon Sancho is a controversial figure. He’s had his problems with Manchester United, found his form back at Borussia Dortmund, and found both his form and problems while at Chelsea, and ultimately, the question the decision makers will be asking at Chelsea is: Is Jadon Sancho worth it? I think ultimately the decision will come […]
Another season, another scapegoat – The beginning of the end for Enzo Maresca
Chelsea lose 2-1 at home to Legia Warsaw in the UEFA Conference League. This is a sentence that people probably would not believe to be possible just three years ago, even if they knew that Chelsea won 3-0 in the away leg. Unfortunately, what it represents is the situation that Chelsea is in. A situation […]
Geovany Quenda and Dario Essugo – game changing acquisitions or poor allocation of funds?
Chelsea have, yet again, made another swoop for young players. In what feels like a deliberate doubling down on the youth centred model, Chelsea have spent around 70M on two ‘exciting’ young talents. Though the benefits of these moves could prove excellent long term, it is again yet another gamble that does not cement Chelsea […]
Chelsea’s acquisition of Mathis Amougou raised eyebrows – but it actually makes a lot of sense
Mathis Amougou is a young 19 year old midfielder signed from Saint-Étienne for an estimated fee of around £12 Million. He was part of the French Under 17 team that came runners up in the FIFA U17 World Cup of 2023. He hasn’t played a lot of professional football as of now, and when he […]
Chelsea and Mathys Tel – is it another Cole Palmer situation?
So, another article and another day has come by and Chelsea Football Club are yet again interested in another young player. At risk of sounding like a broken record, I will keep this article relatively short and simple. This time, we’re looking at Mathys Tel. Tel is a French forward, born in 2005, who burst […]
A data driven insight : Alejandro Garnacho
Chelsea Football Club could be about to splash £50-60m on Alejandro Garnacho. I write this, sitting next to a friend that supports Manchester United, being begged to take the player from Manchester United. Now, this isn’t necessarily the best litmus test to use when assessing whether or not to buy a player from a rival, […]
Should Chelsea sanction £50m or more to sign Marc Guehi in January?
Injuries to Wesley Fofana and Benoit Badiashile have exacerbated Chelsea’s desire to pursue another centre back in the transfer market, though not in the way anyone really thought they would. It was expected that Chelsea would pursue a centre back of the profile they actually needed, as opposed to buying another central centre back (CCB) […]
An early season review : Just how good actually are Maresca’s Chelsea?
Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca has guided Chelsea into 3rd position in the Premier League heading into the International break, but is it all as rosy as it seems? In this article, we will attempt to dissect both the positives and negatives of the season so far. I have always been a firm believer in […]
