Chelsea vs. Nottingham Forest, Premier League: Preview, team news, how to watch

It’s been a couple weeks since Chelsea last played in the league, and in that time, we’ve fallen from an already disappointing position to an entirely unsightly one. Of course, it’s a bit of a bunfight in the middle of the table: four points separated positions six through twelve at the start of the weekend. […]

Leicester City WFC 1-3 Chelsea FCW, Women’s Super League: Post-match reaction

It didn’t take long for Chelsea Women to start dominating Leicester City at their home turf. This is after all a team that recorded only nine points in 20 Women’s Super League matches before today, and the way in which we took over the pitch showed why. They did try to put up some resistance […]

Leicester City WFC vs. Chelsea FCW, Women’s Super League: Confirmed lineups; how to watch

In the second-to-last match of the Women’s Super League season, Chelsea Women face an already relegated Leicester City team that have been in a crisis quite similar to their men’s counterpart, who have also just been relegated. A match of parallels, more or less. Leicester starting eleven:Keane | Kees, Tierney (c), Van Egmond, Jansson, Ale, […]

How should Chelsea line up against Nottingham Forest to stay in top-six race?

We have to wait all the way until Monday afternoon to see Chelsea in action this weekend, by which time most of our closest rivals for the top-six will have played. In fact, we will be entering the match in ninth position. Three points will be needed to keep pace in the race for sixth […]

Reece James, Levi Colwill back in training but Chelsea being careful

There’s some good news on the injury front, as revealed by interim head coach Calum McFarlane in today’s press conference: Reece James and Levi Colwill are not only back in training but are now back in contention for matchday selection. Of course, Chelsea are being very very careful in both cases. Colwill has been out […]

The Daily Hilario: Sports!

How’s everyone doing? TMIL has shirked his duties, so you’ll have to make do with me as your TDH guide for today. I’ll try twice as hard as usual to make sure it at least publishes on time today. Since our switch to the new site design and backend CMS, scheduling posts has gotten harder […]

Mauricio Pochettino confirms philosophical disagreement that led to Chelsea exit

I’m not one to ever dwell on the past too much, but found this somewhat instructive given that we’re (once again) in-between coaches and looking for the next man to take the thankless job of being Chelsea manager. Sorry, I mean head coach. Mauricio Pochettino was the guest on “The Overlap” podcast this week, and […]

Chelsea confirm preseason friendlies in Australia, Southeast Asia

It’s set to be another busy summer of football for all, with Chelsea heading east for a preseason tour not long after the conclusion of the World Cup in North America. Four fixtures across less than two weeks have been confirmed so far, two in Sydney, then one in Hong Kong, and lastly one in […]

Official: Chelsea legend Millie Bright retires, takes trustee role at club

Legends don’t come much bigger than Chelsea captain Millie Bright, who’s worn the Blue shirt for the past 12 years and a club-record 314 appearances, winning 19 trophies and even scoring 19 goals along the way. And though the 32-year-old center back has today announced her retirement with immediate effect, she’s also not completely leaving […]

Mykhailo Mudryk files CAS appeal against 4-year doping ban — report

There’s been little else but silence around the case of Mykhailo Mudryk and his doping ban after testing positive for meldonium in late October of 2024. The winger was provisionally suspended by Chelsea that December, then formally charged by The English FA last June. The expectation was a standard 4-year ban, though it was not […]

Xabi Alonso also among the primary potential candidates for Chelsea job — report

Outgoing AFC Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola and possibly outgoing Fulham manager Marco Silva appear to be the two primary candidates in the (supposedly) early stages of Chelsea’s search for our next manager head coach, but a report yesterday (Tuesday) from The Telegraph has also lumped in currently unemployed Xabi Alonso into that preferred group for […]

Chelsea ‘interested’ in Anthony Gordon but have ‘other priorities’ — report

Chelsea spent a good chunk of the 2022 summer transfer window pursuing Anthony Gordon before eventually getting priced out of a deal for the then 21-year-old winger fresh off his first full season for Everton. Six months later, Gordon would force a move to Newcastle. He’s done alright there — certainly better than the options […]

Chelsea 1-0 Leeds United, Player Ratings: Enzo makes a point

1. ENZO FERNÁNDEZ (8.2) Captain’s armband. Semifinal goal. Point to the badge in celebration. And this is the guy we’re trying to get rid of? Liam Rosenior described that whole situation as “complex”. But here’s what’s not complex. He’s got that dog in him. We often pine for the days, the attitudes, the mentality of […]

Liam Delap ‘wants to stay and fight’ for Chelsea career — report

The first time most of us watched Liam Delap in action, we surely all came away quite impressed. It was December in the middle of last season, at Portman Road, and the young striker single-handedly grafted his way a Man of the Match performance in leading Ipswich Town to a 2-0 win against Chelsea. It […]

McFarlane hoping FA Cup semifinal win proves turning point for Chelsea

Calum McFarlane has his first win as interim head coach — on his third attempt, in now his second stint — and he’s hoping that it will prove a momentous one indeed. Chelsea have been in historically bad form over the past many weeks, but we still have six five games left (five four in […]

Chelsea 1-0 Leeds United, FA Cup: Post-match reaction, ratings

It was a somewhat shaky start for the Blues and Leeds United had a great early chance to take the lead, but thankfully Brendan Aaronson’s finish on the 1-v-1 counter lacked the quality to beat Robert Sánchez, who produced a solid kick save to preserve the game’s goalless status. Chelsea were starting to settle in […]

Chelsea vs. Leeds United, FA Cup: Lineups & Game Thread

Welcome, Calum McFarlane’s Blue and White Army to the FA Cup semifinal. Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to dispatch one of the weaker teams in the Premier League and reach the final against Manchester City. Recently, this team have chosen not to accept the challenge. Can we change that today? João […]

Everton FCW 1-4 Chelsea FCW, Women’s Super League: Post-match reaction

Everton were the hosts at Goodison Park today but they didn’t get where they’re currently at by trying to boil the ocean. Instead the extremely conservative side were comfortable with sitting back and cushioning Chelsea Women’s heavy pressure as the Blues looked extremely keen on beating Everton to a pulp. Their strategy almost went fully […]
