Official: Chelsea appoint Liam Rosenior as new head coach

Enzo Maresca’s replacement has arrived, nearly as swiftly as the previous coach had departed. Liam Rosenior is in, having signed a 6.5-year contract — not that these contract lengths ever really mean anything — and will be taking charge of the team after the Fulham match on Wednesday. Rosenior had been in charge of our […]

Manchester City 1-1 Chelsea, Player Ratings: The Enzo we need

1. ENZO FERNÁNDEZ (8.0) First Man of the Match of the season for Enzo, which is a bit surprising considering that he leads that team in goals scored (both he and João Pedro have seven, six in the league). Enzo is on track for his best goalscoring season yet: certainly a useful factor to have […]

Chelsea interim head coach Calum McFarlane was taking his first ever game in senior professional football last night at the Etihad.

Manchester City 1-1 Chelsea, Premier League: Post-match reaction

For all intents and purposes, Pep Guardiola’s tenure at Manchester City looks to be in its final stage. A strange spell where despite winning 14 trophies including six Premier League titles and a Champions League (and counting!) in ten seasons (and maybe counting), it feels as if more could be done by him and his […]

Manchester City vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Lineups & Game Thread

First (and only?) match under caretaker head coach Calum McFarlane. Let’s see how far we can go in this one! We wanted to have some fun, and the young boss decided to go along with it. Young Josh Acheampong is in the mix, and so is Estêvão upfront. Robert Sánchez however is not involved, likely […]

Manchester City vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Preview, team news, how to watch

New month, new year, new head coach … new Chelsea? Enzo Maresca’s out, Liam Rosenior’s (soon) in.

Liam Rosenior plays down speculation, but Chelsea move reportedly ‘imminent’

RC Strasbourg head coach Liam Rosenior was the immediate frontrunner to replace Enzo Maresca, making the jump up from our BlueCo sister club, and it sounds like the expected outcome will be reached sooner than later … perhaps quite a lot sooner than later. This of course always seemed like it might be the long-term […]

How should interim Chelsea line up against Manchester City?

As if we didn’t have enough drama going on off the pitch, this weekend we also travel up north to the cold and the wind and maybe the snow, to take on a Manchester City team trying to keep Arsenal and a title fight within their sights. To further complicate matters, we will be doing […]

Calum McFarlane just happy to be here, at this ‘brilliant’ and ‘amazing’ club

Enzo Maresca has disappeared in a cloud of smoke like Houdini, and in his stead, with (almost) his entire staff gone as well, we’ve got U21 head coach Calum McFarlane and his crew taking charge this weekend. (The one confirmed holdover is, of course, set piece coach Bernardo Cueva. Most be because of our tremendous […]

Chelsea 2-2 AFC Bournemouth, Player Ratings: End of year Blues

1. ESTÊVÃO (8.1) There was a bright spark to this game at times, certainly in the first half, and that spark was mostly thanks to young Estêvão, who started for the first time in nearly a month. He was instrumental in getting us back to level terms, winning the penalty that Cole Palmer converted, and […]

It’s a new year and, apparently, soon a brand new era at Chelsea, with manager Enzo Maresca ‘expected’ to be leaving the club today. Maresca is still officially in charge as we speak, but the relationship between him and the higher-ups has evidently reached its breaking point. That he’s leaving on his own terms is […]
