Two goals by Milan Lalkovic and a late winner, courtesy of a penalty, from Adam Phillip, helped our reserves to their first win of the season. With some of our younger players away after the first teams trip in the Champions League to Zilina in Slovakia, it left the cupboard a little bare when it [...]
After the recent boring international break, the real football returned yesterday. More importantly, Chelsea travelled across London to Upton Park for an East versus West clash. We were looking to continue our 100% record, whilst West Ham, were still pointless – in fact, is there any point to West Ham anyway? The earlier clash between [...]
Continue reading …Our record for August ended with us scoring fourteen goals and conceding zero. If that record continues until the end of the season, I think that we would all be happy. Goals from Florent Malouda, his fourth already this season and a Didier Drogba penalty notched us up another three points against Stoke City, to [...]
Continue reading …Within the last twenty minutes or so, the Champions League draw has taken place in Monaco. With Chelsea being in pot one, we couldn’t have been drawn against any of the other major players, although we could have drawn José Mourinho’s new club, Real Madrid, as they were in pot two. The draw seems as [...]
Continue reading …The Reserves got their season off to a score drawing start last night when we hosted Everton at Stamford Bridge. Our side included Fabio Borini, Michael Mancienne and 15 year old Nathaniel Chalobah. It was in fact Fabio Borini who scored first after Everton had come close within the first minute. Chelsea lead after the [...]
Continue reading …Two games, two wins, twelve goals! Who really in their wildest dreams would have thought that our first two games would have ended 6-0 and 0-6? After Carlo Ancelotti’s Wigan warning on Friday, Chelsea swept in like a tornado and ripped into Wigan. Warnings like that will do for me every week, Carlo. Goals from [...]
Continue reading …It is now time to buckle those seat belts again because the drug that is Chelsea and the Premiership takes us on a roller coaster to our second game of the season. Tomorrow, the fun of the fair takes us to Wigan with the DW Stadium the venue. For those of you that remember, I [...]
Continue reading …The last two games at Stamford Bridge has now produced fourteen goals. There was the scintillating last day 8-0 thrashing of Wigan Athletic, the day we became champions and at the start of the 2010/11 season, a wonderful 6-0 win over West Bromwich Albion sees us top the Premiership table already. A double strike from [...]
Continue reading …So, now it’s time to breathe in, as it’s only two days before the big kick-off. The Premiership starts on Saturday with our opener against West Bromwich Albion kicking off at 17.30 BST. For full match build up, log in to our forums to discuss everything that you want and need to know. The build [...]
Continue reading …So, that is now three in a row. Defeat came once again on our pre-season tour of Germany, after a 2-1 defeat to Hamburg left us perplexed and wondering what could be happening ahead of our Community Shield game with Manchester United on Sunday.
Continue reading …With first team players back in action, Frankfurt was the venue for another pre-season game. Much like our trip to Amsterdam though, after 90 minutes we were the defeated team. For Amsterdam, see Frankfurt, as a goalkeeping error led to Frankfurt’s first goal scored by Ochs. This time the error came in the shape of [...]
Continue reading …With the start of the season getting ever nearer, we hop the short journey from the Netherlands to Germany for our third pre-season game. Last week it was Ajax and a 3-1 defeat, Sunday, however, could be a different story, as we now have our first team squad back after their holidays as we take [...]
Continue reading …With the majority of our first team still on their holidays, a lot of our reserve squad have had to step-up to the first team within the past week or so. This has been due to the fact that a section of our first team players came back on July 22 and still need to [...]
