Opinion: Mateo Kovacic was oddly loved and hated at Chelsea

Mateo Kovacic's move to Manchester City was confirmed this week, and it's time to reflect. Kovacic was very much like marmite amongst the Chelsea fanbase, you had fans who either absolutely adored him, and fans who absolutely hated him, there wasn’t a lot between the two. It was all a bit weird and just one […]

Which Chelsea stars should depart Stamford Bridge this summer?

The sooner last season is forgotten, the better. No one needs reminding of just how disastrous the recently concluded campaign was in West London however, in case you’ve forgotten, here goes. The Blues went through no fewer than four managers last term, and none of them were able to get the best out of a […]

Opinion: What could have been for Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Chelsea

Ruben Loftus-Cheek has been my favourite Chelsea player for some time now, and I am gutted that he is leaving to join AC Milan, truly gutted. It’s a great move for him, and I know he will absolutely light it up at Milan, this move right now suits him down to the ground. I’m happy […]

Opinion: assessing Cesare Casadeis future plans at Chelsea

The future of Chelsea youngster Cesare Casadei has been the topic of conversation amongst supporters in recent weeks, with the young Italian midfielder being linked with a move to Juventus, much to the frustration of the Stamford Bridge faithful. Casadei has caught the eye with some strong performances in recent months, which came for Reading, […]

Opinion: Zola example shows why its tough to follow Abramovichs footsteps

I want to begin with saying that I am far from bashing the current Chelsea owners in this article, that is completely not the purpose of this. Also, I've actually been quite the defender of our owners since they came in and I think they will be super successful. Will they get to Roman Abramovich […]

Opinion: Chelsea were right to sign Kalidou Koulibaly at the time

Chelsea confirmed the departure of Kalidou Koulibaly to Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia on Sunday and I wanted to give a little shout out and tribute to the players I feel deserve it when they leave. First of all, I want to say that in my opinion, signing Koulibaly at the time was not a […]

What Chelsea need this summer to get back on track

The first year of Todd Boehly’s regime has been an absolute disaster. The 2022/23 Premier League campaign ended with the Blues languishing in 12th place with their worst Premier League points tally ever and their worst finish in the top flight since 1994. That in itself is bad enough but when you consider the £600 […]

Opinion: Why Chelsea get the best out of 65m Havertz to Arsenal deal

Chelsea have landed themselves an absolute deal, so much so that it's almost laughable. Kai Havertz is on the brink of joining Arsenal for a reported fee of £65m! Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those Chelsea fans who have spent months hating on or not liking Kai Havertz. I appreciate the good […]

Opinion: Conor Gallagher to Brighton makes sense for all parties

I want to start this by saying that I am actually a fan of Conor Gallagher, I think he brings a lot of good qualities and has a lot about him. He's got a great mentality, is a battler, is a Chelsea academy lad, has energy to burn, and he's also pretty decent at football. […]

Opinion: Chelsea might need to continue smart scouting in midfield

Some news has been circling today of Chelsea's interest in Villarreal striker Nicolas Jackson, a relatively unknown and young forward coming through. Whatever people might think of Jackson, there is no doubt that he has been scouted using data, which is something that I'd like to see a bit more of at Chelsea. Smart recruitment […]

Opinion: Positive to be addressed by Chelsea owners directly

If you missed it today, Chelsea released an official statement on their website as a direct message to the fanbase. A reminder of what it said here: ‘It’s been just over a year since we completed our purchase of Chelsea. It was and remains a privilege for us to be custodians of our wonderful club. […]

Opinion: Sad story of former Chelsea academy player now homeless

I wanted to highlight this story as much as I can because I haven’t seen much on it, and it needs more light shining on it. The rollercoaster story of Jacob Mellis reminds me of how quickly fortunes can change for some people, how dreams can be so close, and then so far away. It […]

Opinion: Chelsea have to get it bang on for Pochettino this summer

If you look at every successful football club in history, just look at the importance of the players who play in their spines. Chelsea’s most successful teams of the past have had some of the best spines I’ve ever seen in football. It is imperative that we give Mauricio Pochettino his spine at Chelsea this […]
