Involved Most Huh
‘Stars in their eyes’: AFC Bournemouth still trying to convince Alex Scott to stay
Chelsea were linked with AFC Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott throughout the summer transfer window — especially late on — and those links have only gotten stronger since then. In fact, it seems almost a foregone conclusion that Chelsea will at least make a strong attempt to sign the 23-year-old midfielder from AFC Bournemouth, and will […]

Winless Hmm Second
How should Chelsea line up against Spurs?
It’s a big one this weekend, as Tottenham Hotspur come over for the latest bit of Battling at the Bridge. Spurs finally got their first win of the season on Monday, and they’ll surely will want the DVD-production line going with an even rarer win against Chelsea. And that makes it even more imperative that […]

Youngest Most Wow
Mike Penders becomes Chelsea’s youngest ever Premier League goalkeeper; now set to beat Petr Čech’s record
It probably didn’t happen exactly how he might have imagined it, but young Mike Penders made his Premier League debut over the weekend when he replaced the stricken Emiliano Martínez in the second half of Chelsea’s game against Everton at Hill Dickinson Stadium. The veteran goalkeeper, two-time recipient of the Yashin Trophy, suffered a fractured […]

Everton 0-2 Chelsea, Player Ratings: Now that he’s a wing-back, lads
1. PEDRO NETO (8.8) A few weeks ago, during Sky’s post-match show after Chelsea’s 6-3 win over Leeds United in the League Cup, Pedro Neto was asked by former teammate Conor Coady about when he started to care about conceding goals. In return, Neto quipped, “Now that I’m a wing-back, lad!” Thankfully, Neto hasn’t stopped […]

Chelsea FCW 6-2 Tottenham Hotspur FCW, Women’s Super League: Post-match reaction
A rather bright day graced the fans at Stamford Bridge for a London derby between Chelsea Women and Tottenham in the Women’s Super League. The Spurs had done very well in the league up until facing London City Lionesses, with the up-and-coming team brushing them aside with a 6-1 scoreline at Brisbane Road. Chelsea haven’t […]
Chelsea FCW vs. Tottenham Hotspur FCW, Women’s Super League: Confirmed lineups; how to watch
If Chelsea Women are to fight for the league title this season, they need to keep up with a very competent Manchester City team more than keen on retaining the trophy for a second consecutive season. They have been perfect in the Women’s Super League so far while the Blues already slipped twice. Beyond this […]
Chelsea FCW vs. Tottenham Hotspur FCW, Women’s Super League: Preview, team news, how to watch
The international break is over, and Chelsea Women are back in action with a London derby against Tottenham at Stamford Bridge. We enter this weekend unbeaten in the Women’s Super League, but still two points behind Manchester City and their perfect start to the season. Beating Spurs is the least we can do to keep […]

Emiliano Martínez set to miss 6-7 weeks after surgery on fractured jaw — report
Emiliano Martínez suffered a fractured jaw in the win against Everton yesterday, with the goalkeeper rushed to hospital after receiving nearly ten minutes of treatment on the pitch following a … “collison”, if we want to be generous … with Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite in the second half. Branthwaite himself somehow would be allowed to […]
Everton 0-2 Chelsea, Premier League: Post-match reaction, ratings
It didn’t take long for the game to settle into its expected state, Chelsea having all of the ball but Everton leaving no spaces to play in the final third. There was good intensity from the visiting Blues, but little in the way of actual threat. The home Blues weren’t offering any of that either, […]
Everton vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Confirmed lineups; how to watch
It’s bright and it’s early and it’s a Saturday. And it’s Chelsea. And it’s Everton. And it’s Merseyside. And it’s live! The Premier League weekend begins with a top-six clash of fifth versus sixth, as the league’s meanest defense go up against the league’s second best attack (and one of the league’s worst attacks go […]

Chelsea fans’ preferred lineup against Everton: Never change a winning lineup
It’s the age-old question. Do you change a winning lineup? Do you play to your strengths as you perceive them, or do you try to anticipate and react to the opponents’ perceived strengths? The answers to those two questions rarely align exactly. As far as the WAGNH Community’s concerned, the correct answer is to stay […]
Everton vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Preview, team news, how to watch
Chelsea are up first in the Premier League this weekend as Xabi Alonso takes his charges north to Goodison Park. Thankfully, someone told our manager, the former Liverpool player, that Everton no longer play at Goodison but rather at Hill Dickinson down the street. That could’ve been awkward! So, assuming we show up at the […]
How should Chelsea line up against Everton?
Chelsea travel up to Merseyside this weekend for a Saturday lunchtime occasion at Everton’s new Hill Dickinson Stadium, and unfortunately we will be doing so without the Captain, who was confirmed to have undergone knee surgery and will be out until at least Christmas. Despite James’s absence, our injury list is actually quite short at […]
Reece James to miss three months with knee injury — report
After last weekend’s game, Xabi Alonso made an off-hand mention of how Reece James suffered a little knee problem in training leading up to the match, and that he’s going to be week-to-week as we assess his condition. There were a few scary words in that brief mention, and sure enough, the problem turns out […]

It has been a stressful couple of days, all the more worrying that I seem to have lost a few days. I’m back now, with my calendar updated. Of course Lol Hmm
AFC Bournemouth now willing to consider Alex Scott offers starting at £80m — report
Reality may be starting to sink in a bit at AFC Bournemouth, who are now said to be ready to consider offers starting at £80m for Alex Scott in January — a fair discount on the previously reported £100m fee just to get them to the negotiating table. Sky Sports claim that “an offer in […]

How a private equity investment analyst might view BlueCo’s acquisition of Chelsea
Before I start, a few things: This was originally posted on The Daily Hilario on Monday, 12th October. If you have already read it there, this has incorporated the gist of my responses to comments made in order to avoid repetition. Despite the title, I’m not an investment analyst. However, I have worked alongside private […]
