Opinion: After Two days with no answer, I’d be walking away from Raphinha

Opinion: My advice to all football fans is to emotionally detach from transfer rumours

Opinion: Quick changes point towards Chelsea working on more than one target

We actually see this every single transfer window. Chelsea are linked with a player, they seemingly advance for that player, and then a brand-new target emerges and the aforementioned links die out. It’s happening a lot this window as well. For example, we are seeing Chelsea linked with a number of attacking targets such as […]

Opinion: Chelsea fans will celebrate pending departure more than any arrival

OK, so maybe not literally, I know there could be a few big names who that IF they did end up at Stamford Bridge this summer as a major signing, then we would all go absolutely wild for. But with my tongue in my cheek, Chelsea fans will celebrate the departure of Romelu Lukaku more […]

Opinion: New Chelsea board should have no judgements from Blues fans

Chelsea have a brand-new board in place, with even Marina Granovskaia being confirmed as departing. This is a major thing. We often see frustrations from Chelsea fans directed at Granovskaia and other Blues board members, although funnily enough not often at the actual main decision maker, the owner of the club at the time, Roman […]

Opinion: Getting a new DOF as important as anything else this summer

New Chelsea owner Todd Boehly has become the jack of all trades at the club, he is literally doing it all, at least for this summer anyway. Boehly was officially confirmed as the new Chelsea chairman this week, a role that he always seemingly had in his head that he would be doing once he […]

Chelsea fans must remain calm on transfer silence

Fans are getting stressed about a lack of transfer activity from Chelsea, but that’s just the nature of the game these days.

Chelsea determined to sign a Premier League centre-back alongside foreign imports

A tale of two loans, Billy Gilmour and Conor Gallagher

Opinion: Armando Broja is a massive talent, but he’s still raw

Chelsea striker Armando Broja has become the subject of strong interest from a number of top clubs this summer, and there’s a chance he could be sold on a permanent deal. Premier League clubs such as West Ham and Everton have been linked with the striker, and it’s easy to see why. Broja is a […]

Opinion: Lukaku deal shows difference in operations already under new owners

Everything now points towards Romelu Lukaku’s return to Inter Milan, in a deal that is expected to be tied up very soon now. “Surely there is a great will of the player to return, the economic and financial feasibility must be checked and some technical problems must be solved” Said Inter Milan CEO Alessandro Antonello […]

Opinion: If Inter are offering to pay all of Lukaku’s wages, snap their hands off

Ahhh the Romelu Lukaku saga once again.

Opinion: Billy Gilmour has bright future at Chelsea after extending deal

Chelsea have very wisely used the option to extend the contract of midfielder Billy Gilmour by a further season, and this will prove to be a great move. Gilmour’s career has been stunted by going on loan to relegation battling Norwich City, and this has hauled him back, and more importantly, perhaps made some forget […]
