Leeds United vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Preview, team news, how to watch

Chelsea made it seven unbeaten, in all competitions, with a stellar effort against league-leaders Arsenal on Sunday, battling to a 1-1 draw despite playing over an hour with just ten, so surely a game against one of the worst teams in the league will pose less of a challenge. Of course, that’s not how it […]

How should Chelsea line up against Leeds United to avoid a letdown?

After two massive results and two massive 90-minute efforts, Chelsea hit the road to Leeds to take on one of the Premier League’s lesser lights.

Earls Court development plans finally approved, sans football stadium

The redevelopment of Earls Court, a roughly a mile away from Stamford Bridge as the crow flies, appears to have taken a massive step forward … after many years of the site going disused and its future being (somewhat) in question. Unfortunately, though entirely as expected despite a few rumor-cycles, it’s taken that step forward […]

Chelsea 3-0 Barcelona, Champions League: Post-match reaction, ratings

The sense of occasion was undeniable, the build-up momentous, the pre-game pressure palpable. But Chelsea were not cowed by any of that, and got to work straight away after the referee signaled the start of the game.

Chelsea vs. Barcelona, Champions League: Preview, team news, how to watch

Football doesn’t get much bigger than Barcelona coming to your city, even if it’s “just” for the league phase (née group stage) of the new Champions League format. It’s as marquee of a matchup as marquee matchups can get, especially given all the (modern) history between the two teams on Europe’s biggest stages over the […]
