Chelsea needed every second of extra time to put 10-man Wrexham away. If any of the fans had come into this game expecting an easy outing, they were handed a rude awakening. One could easily argue that the Championship side were the better team on the night and deserved to go through. They outplayed the […]
The need for experience in Chelsea’s squad has been quite clear for some time. The 4-1 win was the most recent example that this team is capable of pulling off some big results. What they lack is consistency and discipline. Also, when the games get tough, a number of players seem to take a step […]
Since the arrival of BlueCo, Chelsea have consistently focused on signing youngsters from all across the globe. This has come at the cost of the club overlooking the need for experience and proven quality. At times, it has felt like an attempt to transform the game. If so, until now, it has been failing. Despite […]
For many years now, Chelsea have been searching for a world-class striker. Of course, many fans cherish the days of Didier Drogba, the Ivorian who guided the Blues to both Premier League and Champions League glory, as well as several other trophies. Diego Costa belonged in that same category as well. But since the Spaniard […]
In recent times, Chelsea have been linked with a number of Real Madrid players. In fact, reports in Spain had claimed that an offer for Rodrygo was on the way before he picked up a serious injury, which is expected to see him miss the World Cup. On the other hand, it looks like one […]
Liam Rosenior’s arrival as Chelsea manager has certainly helped a few of their current players. Of course, Joao Pedro has been getting the headlines. The Brazilian striker has scored 10 goals and provided 5 assists in 12 games under the English head coach. But he is not the only one to have benefited from the […]
Joao Pedro’s form under Liam Rosenior has raised expectations that Chelsea have finally found the answer to their problems up top. Since the new manager’s appointment, the Brazilian striker has scored 10 goals and provided 5 assists in 12 games. In his latest outing, he scored a hat-trick against Aston Villa. He is the club’s […]
Chelsea’s win over Aston Villa was a much-needed one for Liam Rosenior’s side. They had started to lose a bit of steam in recent weeks. The defeat against Arsenal was a blow, but somewhat expected. The Blues have not won in their last eleven tries against their London rivals. The draws against Leeds United and […]
The 4-1 win over Aston Villa, thanks to Joao Pedro’s hat-trick and a goal from Cole Palmer, has breathed new life into Chelsea’s campaign. Not only did they get a tough away win, but they also defeated a rival in the Champions League qualification race. To make things even better, Manchester United lost to Newcastle […]
Going into the game between Aston Villa and Chelsea, the home team would have been considered the favourites. Unai Emery’s side have struggled in recent months, but even then, the same could be said about the Blues as well. Aston Villa had actually won their previous two meetings, both by a 2-1 scoreline. Fortunately, Chelsea […]
Chelsea’s recruitment in recent times has faced heavy scrutiny. Despite having one of the most expensively assembled squads in the world, they are nowhere near competing for the biggest prizes in football. That is largely because the BlueCo think tank invested heavily in signing youngsters, completely overlooking the need for experience and proven quality. It […]
It has become very clear this season that Chelsea are not good enough to compete for the top prizes in England and in Europe. The likes of Arsenal and Manchester City were always ahead of them. Now, it looks like Aston Villa, Manchester United and Liverpool are opening up a gap as well. That was […]
