Welcome home Super Frank!
Scoring the dramatic last-minute winner against Liverpool at the start of October seems to have unlocked something in young Estêvão, who got his name on the scoresheet once again this weekend, in a friendly for Brazil against Senegal. The 18-year-old now has seven goals in his last eleven appearances for club and country, and has […]

Chelsea Women travel to Merseyside tomorrow to chase a win they simply can’t go without. Manchester City have already knocked them off top spot and sit four points clear, which means every game from here is about keeping the pressure on and refusing to give up any more cheap draws like the one at Arsenal […]

Second Finally? Unstoppable

Chelsea have reportedly agreed the future transfer of young defender Deinner Ordóñez, who currently plays for Independiente del Valle in Ecuador — the same team from where we signed Kendry Páez in a similar manner (and the same team where Moisés Caicedo once caught the eye of European scouts). Strong academy there, evidently. As per […]

It wouldn’t be an international break without someone picking some sort of new injury, and the (un)lucky victim this time around looks to be Jamie Gittens. The young winger reportedly “limped off” after “clearly struggling” around the hour mark of England U21’s win over Republic of Ireland. He would head “straight down the tunnel”. Not […]

Those Chelsea players not involved with their respective international teams, as well as those who aren’t taking some much needed time off to rest and recuperate a bit (i.e. the likes of Enzo Fernández and Pedro Neto), were back at Cobham yesterday for some mid-international-break training. And, as confirmed on the Chelsea official website, among […]

Thomas Tuchel’s England have made it seven wins from seven in World Cup 2026 qualification, and still without even a single goal conceded (with 20 scored), as they beat Serbia, 2-0 last night. Of course, they have already qualified for the World Cup, so now it’s just about putting the finishing touches on a perfect […]

Chelsea Bomb Squad captain Axel Disasi made a surprise appearance for the under-21 team last weekend, but if Sky Sports are to be believed, he could be set for an even bigger shock here momentarily: a return to the first-team! According to Sky’s Kaveh Solkehol, Disasi is “set to return to training with the Chelsea […]

Young Chelsea goalkeeper Ted Curd has joined National League (i.e. fifth tier) side Boreham Wood on loan yesterday, for at least one month but probably for the entire rest of this season. Chelsea’s official announcement says that the loan is “initially” just for one month; Boreham Wood’s announcement says the he’s joining them until the […]

It’s weird to say Chelsea Women have been quite underwhelming in a start to the season where they remain unbeaten. Years of Emma Hayes at helm followed by Sonia Bompastor’s debut in which we swept all domestic trophies set us very high standards beyond regularly getting three points. We also want performances to follow, which […]

In two matches in the UEFA Women’s Champions League league stage this season, Austrian outfit St. Pölten have given up nine goals and scored zero. They sit dead last in the table, and face one of the biggest challenges of their history today: the English champions. There’s not much for the hosts to lose here. […]

Pedro Neto, like several of his Chelsea teammates, has been pushing the limits of his physical capacities over the past few weeks, badly in need of some proper rest but playing through various problems while still giving it his all on the pitch. Thankfully, he will have that rest now, during the international break, after […]

Chelsea Women travel to Austria to face SKN St. Pölten in their third group-stage match of the UEFA Women’s Champions League, looking to solidify their position after a mixed start in Europe. A draw away at Twente and a comfortable win over Paris FC have kept the Blues on track, but Sonia Bompastor’s side will […]

1. ALEJANDRO GARNACHO (8.4) Garnacho’s Chelsea career began somewhat auspiciously, as he was partially at fault for Brentford’s last-gasp equalizer on his debut. And, more pertinently, it’s taken him a while to show what his talents and his game are all about. We had seen a few glimpses — and surely had some idea from […]

Enzo Fernández had one of his best game in a Chelsea shirt last night in our 3-0 win over Wolves at Stamford Bridge, and he did it while dealing with a painful knee condition, which has now prompted him to withdraw from international duty with Argentina. In fact, as Enzo himself would later reveal, he’s […]

The game settled into its expected pattern almost from the first second, with Chelsea dominating possession and Wolves sitting back and absorbing pressure. And perhaps if we had managed to make some of our excellent movement and combinations count in the first 10-15 minutes, that would’ve turned into a less frustrating watch. Unfortunately, a couple […]

Chelsea can move up to at least third, and possibly second, with victory tonight, against bottom side Wolves, who are under interim management after the sacking of Vitor Pereira earlier this week. Watch out for the new manager bounce! Enzo Maresca has given the start to Liam Delap with João Pedro dropping to the No.10 […]

Enzo Maresca’s rotation has been a focus of discussion over the past few days, but he’s expected to start the strongest available lineup today and that’s precisely what The WAGNH Community have voted to do as well. And there’s a strong consensus in today’s voting, with all eleven starters clocking in at 70% or higher, […]

Unfortunately for us London now have another Champions League-winning team. By playing to their strength and not cowering in front of Barcelona’s might, as we often do when we face them, Arsenal Women snatched the trophy right in front of the Catalan juggernauts at the end of last season. The cost might have been a […]
