Maresca’s ultimate Swiss Army knife delivers again
After an injury-torn first season in England for the 26-year old Frenchman signed from Leipzig for a fee in the region of €56 million, Christopher Nkunku is finally becoming the talisman many predicted him to be after he signed for the West London outfit. A global star due to his starring performances for the French […]
Selling Trevoh Chalobah would be irrational and defy logic
Cruising to a 2-0 win before a brain-dead moment from returning captain Reece James, meant Mauricio Pochettino’s men had to fight hard to leave the south coast with a 1-2 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion. A third consecutive victory over Roberto De Zerbi’s men (4/4 if you include pre-season) sees Chelsea leapfrog Newcastle into […]
Moises Caicedo is sealing lips of critics with magnificent displays
Coming off an impressive London derby thrashing of neighbors West Ham, Chelsea earlier today sought to continue their winning run as they visited Nottingham forest. Playing a host looking to confirm their status as a premier league team for the second successful season, it was always going to be a tough tie for Mauricio Pochettino’s […]
Mauricio Pochettino and his tactical decisions
Winning by a five goal margin for the first time against today’s opponent West Ham, evidence of a true resurgence is finally becoming “believable” for all in Chelsea’s blue. A five star performance right in front of the home crowd accompanied with a clean-sheet and the return of key injured players like Malo Gusto and […]
Marc Cucurella is staking a claim to make sure Ben Chilwell is sold in the Summer instead
Reading the opponent’s team-news and seeing a backline of Gilchrist, Chalobah, Badiashile and Cucurella would ordinarily birth unfounded confidence that was prior absent in a opposing team’s attack. It is almost certain that Ange Postegoclou’s men were patiently anticipating an “easier” affair after a more torrid outing against Arsenal in the past weekend. However, that […]
Cole Palmer had every right to push Jackson away from the spot
“Can Chelsea’s remaining games be played on Monday night please?” The above statement is one of plea from many fans connected to Chelsea as the blues last lost a game on Monday in 2018 (A 1-0 loss to yesterday’s opponent, Everton). Coming off a disappointing 2-2 draw against bottom of the league Sheffield United, Mauricio […]
Mauricio Pochettino shows no signs of positive consistency in his management
If a poll had been thrown open to Chelsea fans after the United game about how confident they were going into today’s game against Sheffield United, over 70% would certainly have voiced how nervous and unsure about the team they were, and rightly so. Remembering the joy and celebrations at the aftermath of the game […]
Cole Palmer to the rescue, once again
A player who only burst onto the scene after a beautiful curling effort against Arsenal in the community shield followed up by a header to level matters against Sevilla in the European Super cup just four days after, it seemed destined for Palmer to finally get his deserved shot at regular men’s football. However, with […]
Chelsea bottle another lead, the data shows why Mauricio Pochettino might need to depart
Asking a fan about his preferred scenario about his team’s game by half time and ten out of ten would mention the exact position Chelsea found themselves at half time. A goal up, and a man down, even the opposition manager being sent off. It seemed perfect, but Chelsea once again showed their bottling gene, […]
Playing Raheem Sterling consistently contradicts the consistent “project” talk
Giving up a 2-goal lead after some woeful finishes which included a penalty miss from Raheem Sterling, the afternoon could have turned out worse with the home crowd turning on the team. Already 29-years of age, the England international is at the ripe age to be the team’s leader in attack and his wages suggest […]
