Chelsea welcome Ajax Amsterdam to Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night for a game that will mark a milestone in club history: it will be our 200th Champions League match. That history aside, there’s plenty at stake in this third of eight league-phase encounters. In fact, it’s practically a must-win, certainly if we’re harboring any ambitions […]

1. PEDRO NETO (8.0) Neto’s kept his good form going from the Club World Cup, and it’s always great to see him making an impact directly on the scoresheet. That doesn’t happen very often (just four league goal last season). And though he certainly makes plenty of impact otherwise, it’s even better if he can […]

The scoreboard may have read 3-0 in favor of Chelsea at the end, and Ange Postecoglou may have already had his bags packed as a consequence, but it was hardly as dominant of a win for the Blues against Nottingham Forest yesterday as that would suggest. With a bit more luck and a bit more […]

Nottingham Forest’s current situation with three draws and six losses since their last victory two months ago against Brentford made Chelsea the clear favourites at City Ground. Even if the feeling is superstitious, it does feel like we fare worse in matches like these where the most is expected out of us. The hosts lacked […]

Chelsea were supposed to get healthier over the break, but that hasn’t exactly happened, at least not just yet, with a dozen players injured or otherwise unavailable for today’s game against Nottingham Forest. Some of that was expected, but some of that is certainly surprising, such as in midfield, where both Enzo Fernández and Moisés […]

Chelsea return from the international break with a Saturday lunchtime appointment at Nottingham Forest, which is, without a shadow of a doubt, the absolute worst time to have your first game back, especially playing away. We did head into the break on the back of a rousing pair of one-goal victories, gritting out a 1-0 […]

Cole Palmer’s nagging groin injury keeps getting more and more nagging, with the 23-year-old now set to be out for at least another six weeks, putting any potential return only in December. He was supposed to be out only through the current international break, though England manager Thomas Tuchel cast some doubt on that when […]

Chelsea went into the international break high on vibes but rather low on fitness, with nearly a dozen players either injured or on the verge of injury. Thankfully, several of them were able to skip national team duty, with Moisés Caicedo, Reece James, and João Pedro all getting to rest and recover for a few […]
