Opinion: How Chelsea can solve 7 potential injury issues for Saturday

Chelsea are back in Premier League action this weekend and they make the long trip up North to Newcastle, who of course have just gone through their big takeover. The Magpies have yet to win a game all season and sit second from bottom of the table, but as always, there is never an easy […]

Opinion: Kepa Arrizabalaga proving he’s turned a corner right at the perfect time

Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga could still prove to be a massive part of Chelsea’s season and a real asset in their title push. This is of course because he will be spending the most part of January and some of February as Chelsea’s number one stopper in the absence of Edouard Mendy, who will be […]

Opinion: Antonio Rudiger deserves £200k-a-week wages

If you’d have asked me, and many other Chelsea fans, whether Antonio Rudiger deserves to become Chelsea’s fourth highest earner at the club a couple of seasons ago, we’d have said no. However, there isn’t one person out there right now who can argue that Rudiger is not a top 5 Chelsea player in terms […]

Chelsea title charge back on after confidence-boosting week

Chelsea seem have their confidence back after a 4-0 win over Malmo in the Champions League, but the loss of two players to injury in the same game is undoubtedly a blow. So it will be interesting to see how the team responds in their next few games. Will they be defiant, and battle back […]

Opinion: Callum Hudson-Odoi showing maturity in his response to Thomas Tuchel’s tough love

Using the form of ‘tough love’ as a coach, parent, or a teacher can often be a very useful way of dealing with certain people. Whilst it may not always be the answer for some, others will respond to it very well. The way Thomas Tuchel is publicly asking Callum Hudson-Odoi for more right now […]

Joe Cole jinxes Romelu Lukaku in Golden Boot race against Cristiano Ronaldo

Joe Cole is a True Blue – there’s no doubting that. Despite being an East End boy and a West Ham academy product, he’s never hidden his allegiance to the Chels, even when working as a pundit on TV. So in an interview where he doesn’t even have to try and be neutral, of course […]

Chelsea must improve chance creation to keep pace in league chase

Chelsea have had a tough start to this season, there can be no doubting that. The fixtures themselves were tricky, and the context made them even more difficult. The Blues had more players at Euro 2020 than any other team, and then had the UEFA Super Cup to contend with soon after. Some players were […]

Opinion: Ben Chilwell’s turnaround has been more than admirable

Think back to the summer time, Ben Chilwell was literally sitting around Gareth Southgate’s England team as a spare part. Whilst he was bought along with the group, Southgate didn’t once turn to Chelsea’s newly crowned Champions League winner to help in in his Euros quest. Instead what he did do, was an absolute insult […]

Opinion: Formations Chelsea could use after Thomas Tuchel suggests a change

Opinion: Timo Werner’s confidence returning is bad news for our rivals

Opinion: Trevoh Chalobah already proving to be the surprise package this season

Let’s be honest, none of us expected Chelsea to keep academy graduate Trevoh Chalobah in the squad this season. Although Thomas Tuchel had admitted to watching Chalobah play closely when both were in France and complimented his qualities, it looked near impossible that Chalobah would be staying, especially with the strong links to Chelsea trying […]
