Chelsea 2-2 Leeds United, Player Ratings: Please keep pushing João Pedro

1. JOÃO PEDRO (7.6) I’m not sure what makes João Pedro’s upper back so inviting for defenders to put both hands there and then blatantly push away on it, but whatever it is, I hope it just keeps happening. So, another penalty won, another goal scored, and (what should’ve been) another secondary assist on the […]

Liam Rosenior looks for positive trends in ‘bitter pill’ Leeds United draw

Chelsea contrived to drop two points to Leeds United last night, two points that could prove quite costly in the race for the Champions League spots for next season when all is said and done. Thankfully, Manchester United then also proceeded to drop two points to West Ham, so the immediate damage isn’t too big […]

Chelsea 2-2 Leeds United, Premier League: Post-match reaction, ratings

It took a little bit for the game to get into gear, but after a tiny bit of threat from the visitors early on, Chelsea established control and set about breaking down Leeds’ back-five. While we weren’t able to do so too often, we did create a few excellent opportunities and put together some very […]

Chelsea fans’ preferred lineup against Leeds United: Not the time to take it easy

A derby in all but name, the visitors will certainly be up for this one at Stamford Bridge tonight, so Chelsea will have to match them not only tactically but also in terms of energy, effort, and determination. And that hasn’t always been the case for us when facing “lesser” teams — Leeds are only […]

Chelsea vs. Leeds United, Premier League: Preview, team news, how to watch

Winners of four straight, Chelsea come into the final third of the season as one of the hottest teams in the Premier League. Only Manchester United have collected more points over the past five games — that one extra point has them one point ahead of us in fourth. Below, a four-point gap has opened […]

Official: Paul Green leaves role as Chelsea’s Head of Women’s Football

Paul Green, a key figure in Chelsea’s rise to the very top of women’s football in England, has left the club, today, with an official statement confirming his departure after thirteen (13!) years of dedicated service to the organization. It’s a fairly brief and rather formulaic statement that doesn’t exactly befit his accomplishments and legacy, […]

How should Chelsea line up against Leeds United to keep stacking Premier League wins?

My favorite (American) football team just won the Super Bowl. A guiding philosophy of their young head coach is “stacking”: stacking opportunities, stacking good plays, stacking good decisions … stacking wins. It’s not a unique or revolutionary idea — not sure there are any truly revolutionary ideas left in motivating professional athletes — but it […]

Wolves 1-3 Chelsea, Player Ratings: A Cold front moves through

1. COLE PALMER (8.6) This is only the second Man of the Match this season for Cole Palmer, who admitted in post-match interviews that he’s not been fully fit at any point all season. And despite the hat-trick, he’s still not fully fit, which isn’t too surprising given the nature of his injury and the […]

Tottenham Hotspur FCW 0-2 Chelsea FCW, Women’s Super League: Post-match reaction

A Chelsea Women team eager to rebound after losing back to back matches to fellow title contenders. It could have been a recipe for disaster, especially against a Tottenham team who have been fairly competent this season. While we brought on the early pressure to score, it was the hosts at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium who […]

Cole Palmer sets Premier League and Chelsea records with latest hat trick

Chelsea wrapped up Saturday’s win over Wolverhampton Wanderers before the referee’s whistle had even blown for half-time, thanks to two penalties and a wonderful team move — all three finished off expertly by Cole Palmer. The three goals give the 23-year-old 51 for his Chelsea career (114 appearances) — the 41st player to reach that […]

Wolves 1-3 Chelsea, Premier League: Post-match reaction, ratings

Wolves made a bright start to the match, but Chelsea quickly established superior control and took the lead through a Cole Palmer penalty, won by João Pedro. JP was running away from goal when his ankles were clipped slightly, and he made sure to draw the referee’s attention to that fact. The Blues kept up […]

Wolves vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Lineups & Game Thread

Chelsea look to get back to winning ways after Tuesday’s defeat as we take on the worst team in the league. Wolves have just one win all season, with eight points total. Anything less than three points to take back home to the Bridge would be a disappointment. Pedro Neto has been passed fit and […]

Chelsea fans’ preferred lineup against Wolves: Chance for Garnacho?

Let’s start off with the big caveat: I accidentally left Estêvão off the voting form, so there’s a pretty decent chance that Alejandro Garnacho would’ve at least had stronger competition for nabbing the last spot in attack — and I imagine he might have lost out completely, even. Young Steve-o still garnered about 15 per […]

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Preview, team news, how to watch

Chelsea fell short of a third successive comeback as we bid goodbye to this year’s League Cup competition at the semifinal stage on Tuesday night. Some took the loss fairly hard, but there’s little time to wallow in it as it’s back to the Premier League this weekend with three very winnable points on offer. […]
